| There Lived a Lady in Merry Scotland (The song was recorded, as There Lived a Lady in Merry Scotland, by Ralph Vaughan Williams from Mrs. Loveridge at the Homme, Dilwyn, Herefordshire, in 1908, and was published in The Folk-Lore of Herefordshire, Ella Leather, 1912. Midi made from notation in that book for verse 1; Mrs. Loveridge introduced variations into the tune in subsequent verses; these appear in Ella Leather's book and are quoted in Bronson, vol.2, 79:3, p.246: There Was a Lady in Merry Scotland The DT file differs in some respects from the original. In verse 1, line 2, dee' is a mistake for deeds. Other differences are presumably the result of editing by Roberts and Barrand: Verse 3, lines 1 and 2: I will not believe in God, she said / Nor Christ in eternity was originally I will not believe in a man, she said , / Nor in Christ in eternity Verse 4 appears to have been introduced from another, unnamed source; unless the Leather book omitted it for some reason. The original had this verse in its place (not in the DT file): And God put life all in their bodies, Their bodies all in their chest, And sent them back to their own dear mother, For in heaven they could take no rest. Verse 6: originally The cloth was spread, the meat put on; No meat, Lord, can we take, Since it's so long and many a day, Since we have been here before. Verse 7: originally The bed was made, the sheets put on No bed, Lord, can we take, It's been so long and many a day Since we have been here before. Verse 8: originally Then Christ did call for the roasted cock, That was feathered with His only (holy?) hands; He crowed three times all in the dish, In the place where he did stand. Verse 9 does not appear in the original. Verse 10: originally Then farewell stick and farewell stone, Farewell to the maidens all. Farewell to the nurse that gave us our suck; And down the tears did fall.) | DT | |

| Three Fishers (per Malcolm: The DT file correctly credits the text of this song to Charles Kingsley, but the music was written by John Hullah, not Hull. The text was apparantly transcribed from a Joan Baez record; she seems to have added some unnecessary words to Kingsley's song (the men must work and the women must weep...) which I have not included in the midi, made from notation in Songs of England, ed. J.L. Hatton and Eaton Faning (Boosey & Hawkes, undated), as this is not a traditional song. It appears that Stan Rogers recorded Kingsley's text set to a new tune by his brother Garnet, but this one is the original.) | DT | thread |
