When Celia was learning on the Spinnet to play,her Tutor stood by her to show her the way.She shook not the note, which anger'd him much,and made him cry "Zounds! 'tis a long prick, a long prick'd Note you touch," The act of notating music with a pen was called "pricking." Surpriz'd was the Lady to hear him complain,and said, "I will shake it when I come to't again."
