Joe-

Thanks for providing links to the related threads.

I'm impressed with the length of "A Combat Between an Ale-Wife and a Sea Crab." Clearly an evening's entertainment in a single ballad.

For the record Richard Dyer-Bennet's last name is spelled "Dyer-Bennet." At least that's how his widow spells it.

Cheerily,
Charley Noble
