The first suite contains many themes which cross-pollinate throughout the movements. For instance, the main theme of the Meditation, which has infamously been given the lyrics "Take Me Home to the Land Where I First Belonged" by cellist Andrew Hayhurst, is foreshadowed in the Prelude. The Interlude harks back to the days of Medieval Motets, and is also preempted in the first movement. The Finale is a fast Spanish dance.
