Thread Name: tell me what this tune from Sharp is
Subject: RE: tell me what this tune from Sharp is
In Cecil Sharp's Collection of English Folk Songs ed Karpeles, it looks like version F of the song, (given on D rather than G) and that BB starting your last line above was a single note, B2 in your transcription. (I haven't got Folk Songs From Somerset, so it's possible it was printed differently there). It was collected from Abraham Laurance at Ilminster, 8th April 1906.
