Subject: RE: Tune Add: Catches = longer rounds
MMario, you don't have that catch that June Tabor and Maddy Prior did on their 2nd Silly Sisters album, do you?
I think it might be by Purcell too--it starts out:
"I gave her cake and I gave her ale,
and I gave her sack and sherry.
I kissed her once and I kissed her twice
and we were wondrous merry."
I feel a little naive and foolish for asking; probably this is the one everyone already knows; but I'd sure like to be able to sing it with my trio . . . thanks for any help you can give.
