Partsongs, solo songs and dialogues for voices and lute make up the last of Dowland’s songbooks, published in London in 1603. Dowland cultivates a quality of seriousness in its 21 pieces, expressed in such heart-rending songs as Time stands still, I must complain and Weep you no more, sad fountains.
