Dear deckman, My team has done alot with this song because we have to make up an 8 minute performance for a March 10 competition. There are 5 team members. We are all boys. We picked a song for our work of art because we all like music. My part is old Henry Martin, the narrator and author of the song. I sing the song while the other team members act out the story. Young Henry and the merchant sing their part when it comes along. Ialso play violin while I sing. We also added to the song to show what happens to Henry. Aftre he sinks the merchant ship he goes to Italy to try to do more pirating. He is in a lagoon waiting for a ship when he is sunk by a keel breaker. But he somehow escapes and gets back home. After the song is done British soldiers come and take old Henry Martin away. Then he is beheaded and his head is hung on London bridge. We made a paper mache head to look like mine. We are not nearly done with everything and we only have 2 weeks left. Plus it is hard to hear me sing over the violin so we are trying to borrow a body mike. Thank you for writing to me.
