Richie Origins: James Madison Carpenter- Child Ballads 2 (129* d) RE: Origins: James Madison Carpenter- Child Ballads 2 17 Apr 18


Hi,

Single stanza of text from: James Madison Carpenter Collection, JMC/1/7/1/C, p. 10674. Uses lord Lovel form.

Lady Isabel- sung by Professor G. R. Madison of Farmington, NC, about 1939. Collected or sent to Carpenter.

He jumped on a double-down black,
And she on the dapple grey;
They rode till they got to the broad waters,
Three hours before it was day, day,
Three hours before it was day.
