John Attey's Ayre 03. What Is All This World But Vain Soprano Recorder - Digital Sheet Music
John Attey was a lutenist and composer of lute music, especially songs referred to as ayres, all of which qualify as English madrigals.

It is believed he died sometime during the year 1640. This original lute music has been arranged for SATB recorders. This sheet music contains Ayre 03. What Is All This World But Vain?. It is also available as a part of the entire 14-song collection called John Attery's First Book of Ayres for Recorder Quartet.
