Agricola in 1545,1 and their names are discantus (Fig. 19), altus,tenor, and bassus. I came across a curious illustration whichI take to be of this instrument, a short while since, in theBritish Museum, in a little black letter pamphlet, beginning, £D 3IUu0tri00tmum Jprtncipem ^arttmteum 9$alat*0tamartminf Domfmim 3|oann# mvdii 2Lu$ux£\li Slvixni-nea0i0 cacminum liber pnmu*, and ending, 3|mpre00umffllecone &nno tiomini Qfyttttlxxxxi (1491) tiie quinto 3|ulii, to which it forms the frontispiece or title-page. It is a representa-tion of a viol and bow hanging on nails ; the viol hangs by aribbon, and the bow by its own head, as bows are even now hung.
