 + **INDIAN QUEEN**\\
 +John Dryden's tragedy "The Indian Queen” was
 +converted into an opera by Henry Purcell shortly before
 +he died in 1695. The score includes at least one tune
 +which was later used as a country dance, the second air,
 +which became the "Duke of Gloucester's March" in
 +Thomas Bray's collection of 1699.
 +
 +A tune called “The New Bore [Bourrée]" appears at the
 +very end of the ninth edition of The Dancing Master
 +(1695),
