Mr. Nelson Powers of Mattawamkeag, Maine

The Fair Lady (This is quoted from Alfred Moffat's Fifty Traditional Scottish Nursery
Rhymes (1933), where it is called The Fair Lady. The DT file digests most of Moffat's notes on the song, though it would be worth
adding the following:
"The Luckenbooths were picturesque buildings in the High Street [of Edinburgh], close to St. Giles' Church. They stood there from
about 1470 to 1817 when they were cleared away."
Midi made from Moffat's notation.) | Popup Midi Player |

Fair Mary of Wallington (The text in the DT is Child's example #91C.
and refers to a version printed...in Northumbrian Minstrelsy (1882).
...it should be stressed that the joining of text and melody is pure conjecture,
though based on Bronson's research) | Popup Midi Player |
