38/42 2, fourth measure (semicadence, with _a_ instead of _f_ as principal tone in upper part, and disguised by the continuation of rhythmic movement to the end of the cadence-measure). 1, the cadence is made with the tonic harmony of G minor, but with the Third (_b-flat_) at the top. They are the angles of the design, so to speak; and have the same bearing upon the sense of the music as punctuation marks have in rhetoric. |
