Despite saying that "So far these particular songs have been found only in Exton", the second Exton song (Come see our new garland...) also appears (no tune, 1 extra verse) in Old Peterborough customs and their survival, 1899.

It also appeared in Northamptonshire N &Q, 1886

The Ploughboy tune mentioned is easy to find, but it's not clear from the article which part of the song is meant to be sung to it.
