RunrigFan, you posted the Baring-Gould lyrics that I had already posted. Those lyrics were obviously the source for the lyrics of the Clannad rendition that Ezio posted - yet you posted two more instances of the Clannad lyrics. That's not the idea - we want complete, accurate information without a lot of duplication to wade through. We prefer printed early sources over recent transcriptions of popular recordings.
But please don't duplicate lyrics that have already been posted. I deleted your duplications.
