First published: unknown. Completeness: unknown.

Merry May is a bright E-major piece animated by curling melodic figures, grace notes, and quick exchanges between the voices. Its constantly shifting accents give the two-beat meter a playful, buoyant feel. The opening tune alternates flowing sixteenth-note groups with little pauses and springing replies. Related phrases return with added inner voices and changing harmonies, while broader chromatic passages briefly soften the momentum. The main idea repeatedly reappears, leading to a final decorated phrase that eases into the close. Interesting fact: the lower voice frequently answers with its own short decorative figure, so much of the music's sparkle comes from dialogue between the registers.
