Minstrel - 2nd Attempt (Oldie) is a song that is heard when you ask the wandering minstrel to play for you a second time. He describes the song as "an oldie." The song is a variation of Genesta's Theme played in the Introduction. William Goldstein purposely composed the lute solo to sound as though an amateur were playing it, so it is off-key and doesn't keep tempo.
