Flute and cymbals are the instruments played upon by the female and the male figure. Although connected by the theme and by the composition, the figures are not shown with reference to each other, but in view of the musical movement, which has brought them together as much as it keeps them apart. Enticement without risk, a nonchalant ridicule mellowed in rhythm and melody, are contributions of the specifically mediæval factor.
