Adagio

This is an example of a written out ornamentation. A simple air appears in the top stave, with a written-out embellishment in the second. The tune itself is similar to the Minuet from Purcell's music to "The Virtuous Wife" (Z.611). Also possible that this was part of a sonata with the following three movements.
