Thread Name: Lyr Req: Cambric Shirt (#2, from Dr. Faustus)
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: dr faustus' cambric shirt (#2)
They seem to have changed the refrain lines from the version from Mrs Humphreys, who sang Savoury, says [sage], rosemary and thyme and Then you shall be a true lover of mine. The general sense is the same with some minor and a few major changes. I don't have the Dr.Faustus recording, but what you have looks plausible. Would you like me to give the Mrs. Humphreys' version?
