What can the collective wisdom share about a style of composition
called down(e) or dump?  I have four of these: two from Holmes (ff. 12, 94)
and two from Marsh (ff. 124, 426).  Questions:  Are they basically divisions
on a ground?  Does one follow a strict rhythm with them?
        I enjoy playing (in some cases simply attempting) these.  Are there
others, perhaps by different names/titles?

Thanks and regards,
Leonard Williams
