Tune indicated by Thomas Deloney in 'song in praise of women' "Song in praise of Women. To a pleasant new Tune, called, My Valentine. AMong all other things that God hath made beneath the skie, Most gloriously to satisfie the curious eye of Mortall man withall The sight of Eue, Did soonest fit his fancy" GRATIA |

There is an extensive entry on Deloney there and the text of the Garland Of Goodwill is given along with notes for the songs. Sadly there appears to be no note entry for Part 1, No 9 - your song!
