Thread Name: Sir Walter Raleigh Songs
Subject: RE: Sir Walter Raleigh Songs
In A Pepysian Garland: of "Welladay" he says "For the tune see Chappell's Popular Music, i, 174" So where can I view that tune without buying the book "Old English Popular Music" by Chappell, William and Harry Ellis Wooldridge

Also, about "Welladay", at
http://www.pbm.com/~lindahl/ballads/music.html
he says of "Welladay" that "Simpson put it to B496 but Ward has a different melody which fits the ballads better."

I agree, Simpson's B496 is much too cute for a last confession tune. But where can I view the tune that Ward put to "Welladay" without going to Harvard Uni Library?
