Both are based on the fourth 5-toned scale, progress chiefly by whole tones, and end on the keynote. The phrases in each have a descending trend. The low tone at the close of this song was sung distinctly. Although this song has so extended a compass, it is the gentler and more soothing of the two melodies.

Such changes of accent are interest- ing and give character to the song. No. 140. Lullaby (b) Recorded by Agnes Sullivan (Catalogue No. 1629).
