Incidentally, I now have two MIDIs of "Cookham", the Sacred Harp's tune for "Hark! the herald angels sing" (scroll down for MIDI links below lyrics), in my hymnal. The first one, Cookham1.mid, differs from the second in that the latter, Cookham1r.mid, repeats the last half of the tune. I am not sure whether the two dots in the notation are part of a repeat or not. The end of the song does not appear to indicate a repeat, and I am unfamiliar with a notation that shows the beginning but not the end of a repeated section. Perhaps one of you (Burke?) with a bit more familiarity with the fasola tradition than I have can say whether Cookham does or does not properly repeat its last two lines. I do agree, Burke, that Cookham is a really good tune.
