Op. 249, No. 87 is a gentle G-major folk-song setting in 6/8. A singing upper line moves above a continuous broken-chord accompaniment.
Measures 1–8 introduce the melody through a small turning figure, longer dotted notes, and balanced descending answers. The bass keeps its lilting motion beneath the upper pauses.
Measures 9–12 start lower and rise through a chromatic inflection to a brighter high point. Measures 13–16 recall the opening figure and bring the song to a quiet, rounded cadence.
Interesting fact: The score calls this piece “Contentment” and labels it a folk song, supplying both a character and a source type beyond its opus number.
