Hi, here's another one for analysis and research. Only 2 versions in Roud, both from Hampshire (17811) easily found on the Full English EFDSS website. We're going to include it in our next book in the Hammond-Gardiner series. I can't remember a broadside of it I have seen but it is absolutely typical of broadside language, possibly a London or Bristol, or Hampshire printing. The last verse is definitely familiar. |
