Kate Rusby's version of it also omits the first 4 lines of the last verse... probably because it didn't fit with the Sharpe programmes. Still it's a very evocative song, and if you want the other side, there's one called 'The Recruited Collier's lament' which can be found in the Mudcat song book. Just can't place who wrote it.... (*BG* with faint echoes of trumpet blowing)
