O happie man and O happy dames (The Complete Works of Robert Johnson, No. 37) present two texts that were apparently sung to the same music, which is attributed to both Johnson and Sheppard, in sources that date from 1540s–1580s. It looks as if the first text was the original. This reconstruction for four voices (SATB) includes the two missing inner parts.
