The two manuscripts Oxford, Bodleian Library MS Broxbourne 84.9 and London, Lambeth Palace Library MS 1041 contain 44 songs, mostly with theorbo or luteaccompaniment;  29 songs are in English, with seven in French and eight in Italian.  Composers include Henry and William Lawes, Nicholas Lanier, and Charles Colman.  Three French songs can be identified as the work of François de Chancy, Michel Lambert, and Jean de Cambefort.  Seven of the English songs (by Locke, Goodgroome, Marsh, Edward Colman, Henry Lawes, and an anonymous source) are in a later section of the Lambeth Palace Manuscripts (ca. 1665–1670), and are with a thorough-bass accompaniment.
