===Variation VII (''Presto'') "Troyte"=== Arthur Troyte Griffith, a Malvern architect and one of Elgar's firmest friends. The variation, with a time signature of {{music|time|1|1}}, good-naturedly mimics his enthusiastic incompetence on the piano. It may also refer to an occasion when Griffith and Elgar were out walking and got caught in a thunderstorm. The pair took refuge in the house of Winifred and Florence Norbury (Sherridge, Leigh Sinton, near Malvern), to which the next variation refers.
