The melodic structure is based on the three descending minor thirds D-B, C-A, and A-F sharp, ending with a repetition of A. The melody then ascends to E and returns to the former sequence of minor thirds. This " interval structure " usually characterizes songs in which the tones are not referable to a keynote. The rhythm of this song is simple and the rhythmic unit comprises only one measure. No. 74.
