We will now briefly summarize the laws for the employ-ment of auxiliary and passing notes. I. Auxiliary notes may be taken either above or below aharmony note. They can either be taken by step, in whichcase they must be preceded by the same harmony note whichfollows them, or by leap from a different harmony note. II. Passing notes can be introduced between any two har-mony notes which are a third apart. If the two harmony notesbe a fourth apart, and are the root and fifth of the same chord,two consecutive passing notes can be employed, in which case thesecond may never return to the first (§ 318).
