% A number people objected to the original F/Fm keys, and I was very sympathetic,
% so here's a D/Dm version for the people with limited instruments. It might
% also work well if transposed up to G, for instruments such as flutes, though
% it would mean going up to 3rd position on fiddles.

% Voice 1 left as-is, though the note spacing could be slightly improved by adjusting the staff breaks.
