And after the fame manner youmay add more Parts to them if you pleafe. There Js another way of Compofing Muficto be playd or fuog forward and backward (muchto the fame effed) which is, by making the Partsdouble, as moTjehles, two Bajfes, &c. as you feeiiere following. ^ EX- Contrivance c/Canon. 137 E X J M P L E. -=^f?-:::,=- I Treble, -zr^ 2 Treble. -~:^ ^^?^\^^\^-i^^-^-^^z 1 B^,.2 Here you have two Ti-ehles and two Baffes;which, as they now ftand, may be played or fungas well backward as forward, and will refemblea Leflfon of two Strains; the firft forward ; andthe fecond Strain backward ; as upon trial youwill perceive. But if you would have one Partto be fung backward whilil the other fing for-ward ; you muft then turn one of the frehles, andlikewife one of the Bajfes, the contrary way ; andjoyn them together, fo, that their two ends maymeet in the middle of the LeiTon ; as you fee inthe following Example ; and then the Harmonywill be right, whether you (ing them backwardor forward ; or one Part forward and the otherPart backward. Likewife, two may fmg the Tre-ble i one forward, the other backward ; and o-ther Two, the Bafs in like manner •, and then itis a Camn of four Parts in two. , E X- ,i 3 8 J Compendium o/^ M u s i X J MT L E. % !-t-^4
