Dance elements[edit]

It needs to be made clear that two pas simples, not one, consist of two steps and take one measure (= one breve of the tenor), per the Brussels MS transcription to which the link is provided, f. 1 verso:

"Et si est a savoir que deux pas simples, ung pas double, une desmarche et ung branle occupent autant de temps lung comme lautre"
