The piece 'Bobel' is in Princess Anne's 'lute' book and I think it was Jocelyn Nelson who identified it as the tune Christchurch Bells, familiar from Playford. Monica transcribed and edited the Playford tunes in Princess Anne's book and they are downloadable from her ning early guitar site.

This tune is -or exists also as - a round. So might the guitar version have been played as a round? A guitar part with lots of little ornaments and strums is a lot different from a single line. Here's a shot at it. It sounds a bit ragged - but that's probably just me. Nice sunset, though. The rest of the countryside looked dull and dank.
