Mr Happy's version of 7 Dec 13 was published by SB-G in his "Old English songs from English Minstrelsie" of 1885. In August 1906 Cecil Sharp was in Nether Stowey in Somerset where Mrs Elizabeth Coles gave him another version (to another tune) with more verses. She called the song Home-brewed Ale. Words and tune can be found under that title in the Full English.
