Songs:
A painted tale;

She straight her light green silken coals;
I saw my lady weeping;
With my love my life was nestled;
Who is it that this dark night?
It was a lover and his lass (As You Like It)
Madrigals:
About the maypole new;
In dew of roses;
Ladies you see time flieth
Songs:
Mistress mine, well may you fare;
Can I forget what reason's force;
Love winged my hopes;
Come, sorrow, come;
What if my mistress now;
Absence, hear now my protestation;
Fair in a morn
Madrigals:
Phillis, I fain would die now;
Whither away so fast?;
Hard by a crystal fountain.
This is the first of three programmes to commemorate the quatercentenary of the birth of Thomas Morley—Gentleman of the ChQpel Royal, organist, madrigalist, composer of ayres and music for virginals, editor and publisher, musical theorist, and political agent.

The BBC Third Programme was a national radio service produced and broadcast by the BBC from 1946 until 1967 when it was replaced by BBC Radio 3. It first went on the air on 29 September 1946 and quickly became one of the leading cultural and intellectual forces in Britain, playing a crucial role in disseminating the arts. It was the BBC's third national radio network, the other two being the Home Service (mainly speech-based) and the Light Programme, principally devoted to light entertainment and music.
