She struggled just enough to make her admirer more eager, so that if I had not been there, he would have been in danger of carrying his joke a little too far " ( p. 642, Heath ) This is just one of the many examples in which Byrd clearly distinguishes himself as the moral superior of his companions.

A famous passage from Thomas Morley's A Plaine and Easie Introduction to Practicall Musicke ( 1597 ) supports the view that the madrigal had superseded the motet in the favour of Catholic patrons, a fact which may explain why Byrd largely abandoned the composition of non-liturgical motets after 1591.

In 1597 Byrd's pupil Thomas Morley dedicated his treatise A Plaine and Easie Introduction to Practicall Musicke to Byrd in flattering terms, though he may have intended to counterbalance this in the main text by some sharply satirical references to a mysterious ‘ Master Bold ’.

While the texts of the motets included by Byrd and Tallis in the 1575 Cantiones have a High Anglican doctrinal tone, scholars such as Joseph Kerman have detected a profound change of direction in the texts which Byrd set in the motets of the 1580s.

This has led scholars from Kerman onwards to believe that Byrd was reinterpreting biblical and liturgical texts in a contemporary context and writing laments and petitions on behalf of the persecuted Catholic community, which seems to have adopted Byrd as a kind of ' house ' composer.
