	Catch that Catch Can
		Playford used a number of different layout formats in his catch / song books. The first edition (Hilton) was printed using a sexto layout in 1652, shifted to an oblong octavo in 1658 and 1663, and settled on the oblong quarto starting with the 1667 edition.
		Indeed, while Playford made no specific technological contributions to the music printing scene, (as he himself was not a music printer, only a publisher), he almost single-handedly revived the English music publishing business through many changes to music marketing and selling.

		I do believe that Cecil Sharp there fell in a trap which was simply caused by the length of the lines in Playford’s book.
