songA setting of words to music for one or more singers, with or without instrumental accompaniment. Song may be sacred, for example a psalm, motet, or cantata, or secular, for example a folk song or ballad. In verse song, the text changes in mood while the music remains the same; in lied and other forms of art song, the music changes in response to the emotional development of the text. |

I understand it, that the song be in quire, placed aloft, and accompanied with some broken music; and the ditty fitted to the device. |
