Dear Stewart and all,
I also think your points are fascinating, to say the least.
On the case of the Susanna allusion in "Unquiet Thoughts", it seems to refer to
the most catchy phrase in the madrigal, which is the reason why it caught my ear also. I

Dear Ron,
The reactions to my email about a possible connection between Dowland's "Say

Dear Ralf:
Perhaps one is a bit hasty to pass judgement from afar on the sharpness
of another person's tools without seeing the larger context of the
