Reynardine's recording of THE ROVING SEA CAPTAIN appears on their album "The Hare's Dream." The liner notes say:

THE ROVING SEA CAPTAIN: Both this and THE HARE'S DREAM were collected by Len Graham and appear on his recording "It's of My Rambles."

A couple of sound samples have these lyrics:

A roving sea captain got married of late,
And to his young wife he did gain an estate,
But before they were bedded he was then called away,
For he was a sailor to sail the blue sea.

So they called for the doctor and when he did come,
He groped her all over from heel to the head,
And he groped her all over and then shook his head
Saying, "She'll be all right when she takes to her bed."
