Subject: RE: Origins: Spelling Gospel, [Oak, Ash and Thorn]
The first version posted I found in a mass market paperback of folksongs back in the mid-'60s and have sort of sung it ever since. ("Sort of" meaning not really on a regular basis.) Recently I've been hearing Jeff Warner sing the second version posted, so I've trotted out the version I knew.

Now I suppose I'll have to go and find the book and see what it says . . .
