GUEST,handy sam Lyr Req: Maid with the Box on Her Head (20) RE: Lyr Req: Maid with the Box on Her Head 10 Oct 17


My great grandfather sang a version of this called the "Snow Drooping Damsel" in which the lady shot 3 of the jolly yeomen with her bow while the sheriff managed only one. This ballad had been handed down through my family since the 1640's according to my father.
