Roberto,

I don't have the recording so I can't really help, but I now very well your feelings for I often do try to transcribe songs and even one line whihc is not perfect bothers me.

With Child Ballads I often go to this place and look at the different versions.

None of these versions has exactly your two missing lines, but some are quite close and might give you an idea. To me both lines make sense in your version but as I said I don't have the recording.

Good luck.

Wolfgang
