The Compendium has been edited many times, but these Lessons are only found in the 1678 edition.
Francis Forcer's name is found on 3 pages at the bottom, but it is not clear which of the pieces are his and which remain anonymous.
The 10 pieces are simply in two parts, treble and bass, there is no specific part for the harp announced in the title.
