I'm sure this info must be elsewhere in the DT and on threads but I'm adding it here just in case. Looking at D'Urfey's Pills version The Recruiting Officer of c1719 it implies that it was based on the earlier song Jockey's Lamentation which precedes it in Vol 5 with usual splendid tune. The chorus of Jockey is various repetitions of the line 'Over the Hills and far away, the wind has blown my plaid away.' which of course gave rise to the children's rhyme 'Tom Tom the Piper's Son'. Has anyone got earlier editions of Pills to verify if either or both songs are in those?
