It's one from the McPeake's and is a version of the 17th century "The Comber's Whistle", a reworked version of the 16th century "The Carman's Whistle". The prototype seems to have been "Maulkin was a country maid". See relevant texts of all in the Scarce Songs 1 file on my website. www.erols.com/olsonw |
