Child 10- Two Sisters, Child U from US

Version U, a fragment sent from Newell, has mis-heard word at the end of the first stanza "mist." This may have been sung or it was simply misheard by the transcriber, however it should be and is (in all other versions) "west" which rhymes with "best."


1    There was a man lived in the mist,[west]
      Bow down, bow down
He loved his youngest daughter best.
      The bow is bent to me,
      So you be true to your own true love,
      And I'll be true to thee.

Should this have been mentioned by Child or Kittredge (assuming they realized it) or should I add this as a footnote- which I have already done?
