		In his reasoning, the four parts (of a madrigal, for instance) could be correlated to the four elements: the ground, or bass line, was analogous to the element of Earth; the tenor, to water; the meane, or alto part, was equivalent to the air, and the treble, or soprano part, to the element of fire.
		Whenever the bass note is to be the third of the chord (first inversion), use the table normally, but replace a fifth interval with a sixth (for example, if the bass note is E, and the table calls for a fifth in an upper voice part, use a C rather than a B).
		When the bass note does not lie on the tonic of the chord, it should not be doubled in the upper voices; strengthen the tonic by moving the note that would have doubled the bass onto the root of the chord (which will double another part).
