A setting of a Geoffrey Chaucer text, To Life's Pilgrim ('Fly from the press, and dwell with soothfastness'), one of a collection of Howells works formally out-of-print, but now available in new engravings. An expressive and very naturally-shaped melody sits above the characteristically lush harmony in the accompaniment to create a very evocative short work.
