Ninya Mikhaila will make the gown, when we've worked out what it looks like...

I’ve been given the Janet Arnold Award by the Society of Antiquaries to recreate clothing described in the Tudor song, Greensleeves.

William #Byrd: Psalm 6, Lord in thy rage.
From Songs of Sundry Natures, 1589.

Eleanor Cramer: #soprano
Alison Kinder: bass #viol
Tamsin Lewis: tenor viol

#Psalm 6 is the first of the 7 penitential psalms, and is often found in books of hours accompanied by an image of the King David, kneeling in prayer with his #harp set aside.

Image: page from an #illuminatedmanuscript showing the penitent David, and the #Latin words of Psalm 6, Domine ne in furore.
From Aussem Hours, #16thCentury, W.437.45R
