This is essentially just a fun little run with some practice in natural
harmonics at the 5th fret.  Part of Bert's genius is making a little material
go a long way...  Play measures 1-12, then repeat measures 11 and 12 a few
times, then go back and do it over again.  Starting left hand position is
2 on G string, 3 on B string.  Notes in () : natural harmonic at indicated
fret.
