Subject: RE: Tune Req: Shoals of Herring
I've heard it differently. Though the last verse in the DT is not the last verse that is sung differently. The first verse, however, is the one sung differently.
The two verses are sung slower and with a kind of free metre and with a bit of musical ornamentation, but the tune used is basically a free variant of the other tune.
