Заметки

At the end of the 15th and beginning of the 16th centuries, the Abbot of Unreason was master of the Christmas Revels at the court of Scotland. (source: the published description)
The name of the dance is written with two ‘t’ in the table of contents of the book, which might have led to misspellings elsewhere (e.g. recordings).
