Commentary

An easy medium-paced villancico fragment of only 16 compases, possibly by Valderrábano that sets probably just the estribillo of a villancico text. As Pujol notes, it is a contapuntal variation on the previous work, De dónde venís, amore (Pujol1965, I 50). It is the first of four brief villancicos on the same page of Silva de sirenas. The text is otherwise unknown.
