Words are lent increased singnificance as they only use two pitches when the motif is sung the first few times Continuo bass (here played by cello and organ) Viola Also note the piece is livley and happy. This is not only due to the major chords but the 3/4 'dance-like' time signature and lively tempo A homophonic and monophonic texture is used. It also ends with a homophonic texture.
