Here's one old broadside text not mentioned by Child:

The humours of love [London]. [1780?] 1 sheet: ill.; 1/40. Cambridge University Library Madden ballads, vol. 2 A slip-song - "If you will bring me one cambric shirt,". REFERENCE: ESTCT200173.

If you will bring me one Cambrick Shirt,
Sweet savory grows, rosemary and thyme,
Without any Needle, or Needle-work,
And you shall be a true Lover of mine.

And wash it down in Yonders Well
Sweet savory grows, rosemary and thyme,
Where never Spring Water or any Rain fell
And you shall be a true Lover of mine.

And hang it up on yonders thorn,
Sweet savory grows, rosemary and thyme,
That never bore blossom since Adam was born,
And you shall be a true Lover of mine.

Now you have asked me questions three;
Sweet savory grows, rosemary and thyme,
I hope you will answer as many for me,
And you shall be a true Lover of mine.

If you will take me an Acre of Land,
Sweet savory grows, rosemary and thyme,
.Between the Saltwater and the sea sand,
And you shall be a true Lover of mine.

And plow it up with one Ram's horn,
Sweet savory grows, rosemary and thyme,
And sow it all over with one pepper corn
And you shall be a true Lover of mine.

And reap it with a Stray of Leather,
Sweet savory grows, rosemary and thyme,
And bend it up with a Peacock's Feather
And you shall be a true Lover of mine.

And put it into a Mouse's hole,
Sweet savory grows, rosemary and thyme,
And prick it out with a Cobbler's Awl,
And you shall be a true Lover of mine.

And when you have done and finished your work,
Sweet savory grows rosemary and thyme,
Then come to me for your Cambrick Shirt,
And you shall be a true Lover of mine.
And you shall be a true Lover of mine.
