Yes, a good edition actually. It has the songs from Arie Antiche with good

These are the Italian originals Dering added English lyrics to in his

I would also be interested to know more about how capos were used in the
past. I have an old English guitar from about 1760, which has four holes
in the neck through which one can screw a capo. Capos would have to be
curved to match any curve on the fingerboard, and frets would need
