Musicological Sources:
"The catches . . . have been drawn from two eightenth-century books: 'A Collection of Catches, Canons, Glees, Duets &c,' ca. 1780, and 'Apollonian Harmony,' ca. 1790." ; Regarding the composer: "[William?] Hayes" is indicated in this edition; from this it seems that the original source indicated only "Hayes" and the editor is speculating the composer to be William Hayes.
