T:Gait
N:The title (if that's what it is) is somewhat indistinct. It could be "goit" or "gait".
N:Homan also did not capitalize the first letter, so the word may not be meant as
N:a title, but rather some kind of direction. The tune follows "Old Dad" in the ms.,
N:and perhaps they were played as a medley, with "goit" meaning 'go to it' (next).
