THE FOURTEENTH OF NOVEMBER
On the First of November

On the first/fourteenth? of November last,
(When?) my love and I was parted,
For the go and fight the French, my boys,
Leaving her behind broken-hearted.

Collected by George Butterworth from 'Skinny'Crow, Filby, Norfolk, March 1913

Published in The Ploughboy's Glory, edited by Michael Dawney, EFDSS 1977
