Another Lully piece with the same bass (derived from the Passacaglia pattern) is 'Scocca pur', a piece which Purcell arranged for keyboard.

The cd liner notes said the bass is from Lully's Passacaille from Armide.

They are wonderful. I have heard quite a few of them, and also have some of them uploaded.

Yes. It's the only sonata in the set that has the bass viol playing a ground bass. Otherwise it has an independent part. If you don't know the Purcell sonatas - they are superlative. There are two sets.

Not that I know of- I don't know any Purcell with an authentic opus number.
Wait, are you sure? Because this piece is in three parts.
Thank you very much! Do you know if the "Ten Sonata's in Four Parts" has an opus number?
It's from his posthumous "Ten Sonata's in Four Parts (London, 1697)" [Z 802-811]. This is sonata no. 6 in G minor, on a ground bass.
