Thread Name: Tune Req: Witch of the Glen + Sweetness of Mary
Subject: Tune Add: THE SWEETNESS OF MARY
I spent quite a while searching for "The Sweetness of Mary" (completely different than "Sweets of May")in an ABC collection without luck. I learned the darned tune from the Eliza Carthy CD "Red Rice" and attempted to put it into ABC myself. It will probably be obvious that I'm barely musically literate, and there are probably gobs of mistakes. I'll gratefully accept any corrections or education.

Sue, I can convert the music to a .gif and e-mail it if you don't do ABC.

T:The Sweetness of Mary
