W:Who are in darkness, and in deadly sin;
W:But with thy holy brethren join thy might,
W:Who have, like us, the sanctify'd light:
W:%
W:And Tho' we'll not clap hands, nor congies make,
W:Yet we'll nod heads, and hands we'll friendly shake;
W:Which done, thus joyn'd in love once round we'll go,
W:Next, ye walk up, and we'll cast off below.

W:So I to thee thus testify my love;

N:Bar 8 1 quaver short, middle group says de/=B in MS. Edited to add up.
N:The instruction to play each strain twice over doesn't make sense as there is only one strain
N:The natural break comes in the crotchet f last but one note in bar 6, but adding double bar lines - and time bars here, and possibly changing the f to d on the first time, would be an editorial intervention too far IMO.
