Editor: Charles H. Giffen (submitted 2006-01-12).   Score information: Letter, 6 pages, 137 kB   Copyright: Personal
Edition notes: Musica ficta clearly indicated (probably more generous than necessary or advisable). The Canon (Quintus) on the Superius is pitched a diatonic step below the Superius. With these two voices and the Contratenor frequently overlapping in range, this creates a very rich texture.
Original key edition, but with the Canon part up an octave

General Information

Title: Dont vient cela
Composer: Thomas Crecquillon
Lyricist: Clément Marot (Chanson XIV from Adolescence clémentine)

Number of voices: 5vv   Voicing: SSATB

Genre: SecularChanson

Language: French
Instruments: A cappella

First published: 1543 in Vingt et six chansons musicales et nouvelles a cincq parties, no. 1
Description: This is five-voiced setting with four parts, the superius being a canon. Same melody is used as in the original setting of Claudin de Sermisy. The canon has to start and stop at the indicated place, only a 'secunde' lower… (at C instead of D) without transpositon of course, which results in perfect harmony but an 'estrangement' of the melody, just as Crecquillons tip suggested: Chanter vous fault estrangement: You have to sing strangely. One of Tielman Susato's publications.

Original text and translations

French.png French text

D’où vient cela, Belle, je vous supply,
Que plus à moy ne vous recommandez?
Tousjours seray de tristesse remply,
Jusques à temps qu’au vray me le mandez:
Je croy que plus d’Amy ne demandez,
Ou maulvais bruyt de moy on vous revelle,
Ou vostre cueur a faict amour nouvelle.

Si vous laissez d’Amour le train joly,
Vostre beaulté prisonniere rendez:
Si pour aultruy m’avez mis en oubly,
Dieu vous y doint le bien, que y pretendez:
Mais si de mal en rien m’apprehendez,
Je veulx qu’aultant que vous me semblez belle,
D’aultant, ou plus vos me soyez cruelle.

English.png English translation

What reason be, my Fair, I do entreat,
That you no longer seem to hear my plea?
With sadness shall my life e’er be replete
Until such time as you do answer me:
No more, methinks, do I seem Friend to thee
For either ill of me someone hath spoke,
Or to another love your heart awoke.

If by your choice from Love you do retreat,
Your beauty, dear, no longer shall be free:
If to some other man your thoughts escheat,
Lay claim to all life’s best – God grant it be:
But if of your disdain I am grantee,
I pray your charm to me remains bespoke,
Or that withal your pity I’ll evoke.

Translation by Thomas Daughton
