The Guest several posts back who gave several examples was me, now re-cookied. Re the 29th ofMay, I haven't heard it sung; I was thinking of its use as a country dance tune, as it appears in various tune collections. Re John Barleycorn: yes of course there are a number of tunes to this. The hymn tune I mentioned was linked to the JB words by the Songwainers about 40 years ago, and it is now quite widely sung in this version. Marje
