this piece has been taken from Donald Sauter's definitive page -
"The complete works of Dionisio Aguado" which provides an index

Donald's original tab was done in the spaces rather than on the lines
(using "_" rather than "-" between the notes) - this is explained at -

"Study in Natural Harmonics

This piece comes from Aguado's Nuevo Metodo para Guitarra, 1843
(Chanterelle v2/p82). The intent is not to propose this as the way
harmonics should be notated. See my page on harmonics notation - 
http://donaldsauter.com/myharm.htm 

In this case, though, tablature is surely the easiest way to read the piece.
I've doubled the rhythm values, turning 2/4 into 4/4. It isn't clear what
Aguado intended in measure 22 (counting partial measures). Other errors have
been fixed without comment. He had a rough time with 3's and 5's."
