"Une jeune Pucelle" is a French folk song from 1557 whose melody is loosely based on an older French song titled "Une jeune Fillette". The French words were set to an earlier Italian ballad from the sixteenth century titled "La Monica", which is also known as a dance. In this video, you can first listen to a variation by P. F. Böddecker (from his Sonata sopra 'La Monica'), then to the song, played on the recorder. 

You can listen to two earlier performances of "Une jeune fillette" here and here
