Subject: RE: DT Study: North Country Maid
In North country maid I sing a verse which is not shown here:

Since I came forth from the pleasant North
There's nothing delightful I see doth abound.
But they cannot be half as happy as we
When we were a dancing of Sellinger's Round.

The tune Sellingers Round was played at many hooley's, wakes and fairs in the North.
