-Much of the piece uses some of the sounds in the chant that are not words at all but are used for effect to create an audible flow and are used as a refrain to frame the rest of the song. Rothenberg also transcribed the song-poem with some notes that act somewhat like directions, which include information about the nature of the chanting and some notes about the speed at which the chant was performed at different intervals. Specifically, there is a note about the tempo of the last three 'songs' (which could be perceived as stanzas of a single song) increasing noticeably during the oral performance. +Much of this piece uses sounds that are not words at all but are used for effect to create an audible flow.
