Hello Mick,

That is very useful and obviously the basis for Mr Gill's version. The tune is in the Sharp MSS at the Vaughan Williams Memorial Library. It's folio FT2762. I haven't transcribed the tune, but it looks like quite a jolly 6/8. Thank you very much for finding this for me. It may be the only version from oral tradition.

Cheers
