s632463@aix2.uottawa.ca	1st line: 'I finally found you,' Edward said, (2)	Song used in modern Australian play	24 Jan 97
The play is called _The Golden Age_. Written by Louis Nowra. I believe it is a 19th century English or Irish song. I'm looking for the music. All I have is the first verse. I warn you though, I have scanned thousands of verses in many English folk songbooks. The song may have been the author's creation. The first (and only) verse is as follows... 'I finally found you', Edward said, 'I've just returned from the salt, salt sea And it is all for the love of thee. They say you married a hanging judge O don't let the news, the news be true. But a friend, he said you didn't wait for me As I have waited on the sea for you.' That's all. Thanks. Louis
