The song's not just limited to Quebec, but it has been found in various parts of France, and there is also a version of it collected from the singing of one Adolphus Le Ruez from Jersey, British Channel Islands(about 10 miles off the west coast of Normandy)in Peter Kennedy's "Folksongs of Britain and Ireland". I was listening to the field recording of it just last night, and I'm looking around for additional verses to amplify Adolphus' text. |
