This revision, Sept. 12, 2003. Last Ref. # assigned=ZN3724, + RZN29.

   I've decided to try this with minimal HTML markup. Less text
on a page, but first lines are easier to scan down with all other
text indented. Book titles now appear as `xyz...[=title]', not in
italics.

   This index unfortunately was not designed, it just grew. In
1987 `The Pepys Ballads' was published in facsimile in five
volumes, but without an Index. I got very tired of thumbing
through the volumes to relocate a text in which I had some
interest, so decided to make a rudimentary Index. After I had it,
I though I might as well throw in the Wood and Manchester
collections for which I had made a contents list, and also the BL
'Book of Fortune' collection which I had seen many years earlier.
After I had done that it seemed I might has well put in
everything else that I could find reasonably easy, and here it
is. The file is in ASCII, so it can be read into almost any word
processor, or a Web browser, and one can quickly search on key
words with a SEARCH or FIND command, for these key words any
place in the file, opening line, title, tune direction, etc. The
biggest difficulty is in figuring out all the ways a word could
be spelled in earlier centuries.

   While 17th century broadside ballads is the main focus of
this index, I've now added the 16th century ones. I have included
only a few 'ballads' for which there is no evidence that they
were meant to be sung, or there is no tune cited for them. Carol
R. Livingston's `British Broadside Ballads of the Sixteenth
Century', 1991, (hereafter CLB) indexes all of the extant printed
sheets of the 16th century. Her index starting on p. 713 is the
most awkward to use of any I've ever seen. I have also included
the 18th century garlands in the Roxburghe and Crawford
Collections. C. M. Simpson, in `The British Broadside Ballad and
Its Music ', 1966, (hereafter BBBM) notes a number of other
broadside ballads in obscure collections, publications and in
manuscripts. 


   In the index here are also cited manuscript copies of several
songs that were expanded into broadside ballads not previously
known to be derived from earlier songs, e.g. "Frank[l]in is fled
away." Also included are some songs that survive only in later
copies, but for which there is some evidence that some version of
it was at one time on a broadside ballad, now lost,. e.g. "Nicol
o Cod."

   C. M. Simpson obviously made a fairly complete index of
broadside ballads, but did not publish such, and some collections
are now published that were not published at the time of
publication of his work. He rarely mentioned broadside ballads
whose tunes he couldn't discover, and this is a sizeable number.
Most of the songs he cites in MS may now be seen in microfilm
copies of the MSS, and many of these songs may also be found in
other MSS which he did not cite. I have not referenced the tunes
to those in Simpson's BBBM, since his work is so well indexed. I
have cross referenced Simpson's tune title usually only in the
few cases where a tune title cannot be found in his index.

   I have skipped many of the political pieces given by Ebsworth
in vols. 4 and 5 of `Roxburghe Ballads', in `Bagford Ballads',
and a number of those in the Crawford collection, as these cite
no tunes and are probably in most cases poems, not songs. I have
also skipped some political pieces and satirical social
commentaries that are songs in 'Roxburghe Ballads'. Also not
included are the political pieces in the Thomason and Luttrell
collections, and in the Ashmole and some other small collections
at the Bodleian Library (available at the Bodleian Ballads
website, see below).

Searching by some serial numbers:
Serial number here, that in Rollins' 'Analytic Index', Child
ballad number, Laws' letter-number combination, and Steve Roud's
number. 

ZNn|: Entries are coded with an arbitrary, but unique number,
'n', prefixed by ZN, ZNn and a terminator | (more about
terminator below), to give ZNn|. Cross references to this
entry are the same without the Z prefix, Nn|. SEARCH or FIND
command with ZNn| finds entry only. With N, but without Z, prefix
you will get entry (ZNn|) and any cross references (Nn|) to it
using SEARCH. A Search for Nn| will leave out the main entry,
ZNn|, but will find any cross references to it. Terminator: ASCII
search for Zx20, for example, would also turn up Zx200-209 and
Zx2000-2099, but the temninator at the end (Zx20|) makes it
unique for the SEARCH or FIND command. 

ZBn|: Stationers' Register entry dates are here added complete
for 16th and 17th century broadside ballads, from H. E. Rollins'
AI = `Analytical Index to the Ballad Entries'. Numbers as well
as dates are given because titles sometime change, and also some
ballads were entered only by first line. The coding of numbers
in AI is 'ZBn|, where 'n' is the number in Rollins index. Don't
trust the bald statement "Entered in xxxx"; there are many
entries whose identification with a particular broadside ballad
are questionable, but those by Rollins are usually good. With AI#
(ZBn) quoted, or full entry quoted, you can satisfy yourself.

ZCn|: Many ballads are noted as Child ballads, from Francis J.
Child's 'The English and Scottish Popular Ballads'. Child's
numbers for them are coded as ZCn| where 'n' is Child's number.

ZLxn|: Many more broadside ballads became traditional, and those
noted in the United States are cited by the code given by G. M.
Laws, Jr, in `American Balladry from British Broadsides', 1957.
Those for which traditional versions listed given by Laws are
coded as ZLxn|, where 'x' is Laws letter designation and 'n' is
his number.

ZRn|: Steve Roud's folk song and broadside ballad indices. There
is also a broadside ballad index by Steve Roud, in England, which
is not yet comparable to this one for ballads prior to 1700, but
has many thousands of 18th and 19th century ballads, including
later reprints of many here. He also has a comparable index of
folksongs. The broadside ballads below that came to be
traditional are cross-referenced by the 'Roud' number in his
indices as 'Roud ZRn|', where 'n' is the Roud#. Roud's indices
are at present available only directly from him, now on a CD, and
require the user to furnish his or her own database software. The
format of the disks is such that they may be easily loaded into
most popular PC software systems. Steve may be contacted via
e-mail at Roud@supanet.com

Printed collections indexed here
Pn(n=1-5)- Pepys, `The Pepys Ballads', 5 Vols., 1987: 
  Volume = n, P5A = Vol. V, Appendix I; P5B = Vol. V, Appendix 
  II. Facsimile reprint. Cited by page. 
RPBn(n=1-7)- Hyder E. Rollins' edition of selections from the 
  Pepys collection above. 8 vols, 1929-32, the last volume is a 
  comprehensive index. While the 505 texts are all in PBn above,
  Rollins' notes are excellent, except sometimes for tune 
  identification. Cited by Rollins' volume and number] 
E-Euing Collection, Glasgow University Library, published,     
  without editing, as `The Euing Collection of English 
  Broadside Ballads', 1971. Cited by #. Basis was Heber 
  collection, but Heber's ballads not in Euing are listed at the
  end
RBn(n=1-8)- `Roxburghe Ballads', 8 Vols, 1869-99. I have not 
  included all of the unreprinted 18th century slips songs in the
  Roxburghe collection, listed in `Roxburghe Ballads', VIII, pp.
  184-188, except those reprinted, and a few known from other, 
  usually traditional, versions. Cited by page. When the 
  Roxburghe collection has multiple copies I have used RC to 
  designate secondary copies when publisher's imprint is given in 
  `Roxburghe Ballads'. 
BBn(n=1-2)- `Bagford Ballads', 2 vols., 1878, continuously 
  paginated. I have skipped many political and satirical pieces 
  with no tune indication, as not conforming to my definition of
  broadside ballad. Ebsworth did not reprint the complete 
  collection. BC is used to designate ballads in the Bagford 
  collection that were not published in `Bagford Ballads'. The 
  listing of those unreprinted by Ebsworth is probably not 
  complete here. 
SHB- `The Shirburn Ballads', edited by Andrew Clarke, Oxford, The
  Clarendon Press, 1907. Late 16th and early 17th century 
  broadside ballads copied into the Shirburn manuscript. Cited

  Balladen aus dem 16 Jahrhundert,' [from BL MS Cotton Vesp. A 
  25], `Jahrbuch fur rominishe und englishe Sprache', N. F. II, 
  III; 1875, 1876. Fifty two poems and songs from the MS, and a 
  few songs from other sources near the end. The 1876 volume 
  commences with CV 41. The MS seems to have been finished about
  1579. Few songs have tune indications, and many little title 
  beyond 'Ballad'. Cited by Boeddeker's number. Also reprinted in 
  Peter Seng's 'Tudor Songs and Ballads', 1978, with notes.
ASM- Boldleian MS Ashmole 48. 76 songs and fragments from T.

  century, but more poems than songs. Contents listed in CLB.
C79- `A Collection of Seventy-Nine Black-Letter Ballads and  
  Broadsides', 1867, and 2nd. issue, 1870. Mostly from the 16th 
  century, and somewhat more poems than songs. Cited by page. No 
  editor named. Published by Joseph Lilly, and most often   
  referred to under his name, but the collection was owned at  
  that time by George Daniel and is sometimes referred to as   
  'Daniels'. A post card from J. O. Halliwell, in answer to a   
  query, is in the Folger Shakespeare Library copy of the 1867  
  issue. In it J. O. Halliwell states that he had written the   
  notes, and Tho. Wright had written the Introduction. Complete 
  contents indexed in CLB.
SHN- Shane MS, BL MS ADDl. 38,599, compiled c 1615-26. Contents

  end of this index.
COBn(n=1-3)- 'A Collection of Old Ballads', 3 vols; 1 & 2, 1723;
  3, 1725, from facsimile reprint, c 1880. The publishers 
  imprints are not given here, and some songs near the ends of 
  the volumes were not very old and probably not from broadsides,
  but I've indexed them in vols 1 & 2, but in vol. 3 I've left 
  out after page 140 those that are obviously not from broadsides
  and have no tune citation. Many of these are from drolleries, 
  or are early 18th century single sheet and songbook pieces, 
  including several well known Scots ones. I've included the 
  last, "The Gaberlunzie Man".
STGH- 'Strange Histories' [by Thomas Deloney] reprinted from the
  edition of 1602 in F. O. Mann's 'The Works of Thomas Deloney'  
'Garland of Goodwill', reprinted from edition of 1631 in F. O.

Other reprints of broadside ballads
PG-Hyder E. Rollins, `A Pepysian Garland', Cambridge, 
  The University Press, 1922 (reprinted, 1971) Eighty broadside  
  ballads, one from Rawlinson, one from Manchester and five from 
  Wood's collections, the rest being from Pepys.
PA-H.E. Rollins, `Pack of Autolycus', 1927, reprinted 1969. Forty
  broadside ballads selected from Wood, Manchester, Douce, 
  Rawlinson, and Pepys collections.
CP-H. E. Rollins, `Cavalier and Puritan', New York, New York 
  University Press, 1923. Seventy five broadside ballads from 
  Manchester, 'Book of Fortune' (BL C.20.f.14), Thomason, and 
  Lutrell collections, with several from the 'newspapers' of the
  Commonwealth period.
CB-John Ashton, `A Century of Ballads'. Ashton was quick to 
  expurgate and otherwise delete verses. Most here, but not all,
  are from the Roxburghe and Bagford collections in BL. 
HWS-John Ashton, `Humour, Wit, and Satire of the Seventeenth
  Century'. A miscellany which reprints several broadside 
  ballads, most, if not all, from the Roxburghe collection in BL.
FAGR- Charles Harding Firth, 'An American Garland', 1915.
FNSB- Charles H. Firth's `Naval Songs and Ballads', Navy Records
  Society, 1908. Most MS pieces and others without tune 
  directions have been skipped, and I've carried songs only to 
  about 1741.
C. Hindley also published a two volume selection from the 
  Roxburghe collection.
J. P. Collier published `A Book of Roxburghe Ballads',
  1847, mostly, but not all, from the Roxburghe collection. This
  latter was apparently finished a few years before it was 
  published, and except for two fanciful titles, it seems 
  accurate. But by 1847 Collier was engaged in writing his 
  forgeries of old songs. See the file on this website devoted to 
  Collier's forgeries.
OEB- H. E. Rollins, `Old English Ballads', 1920, those for which
  there is evidence that they were to be sung, i.e., are not 
  poems, are included here.
LMC- Robert Lemon, `Catalogue of a Collection of Printed
  Broadsides in the Possession of the Society of Antiquaries of
  London', 1866. This reprints few of the broadsides cataloged,
  and most pieces given were not song.

Not included:
A Handeful of Pleasant Delites, 1584
Crown Garland of Golden Roses, Richard Johnson, 1612. Some in COB
Golden Garland of Princely Delights

Note 1: The = sign below means issues by same publisher,
usually, but not necessarily, the ballads are from the same
press run. [no imprint] may mean that the ballad was issued
without a publisher's imprint, or, that it has subsequently been
cut off. The latter is especially the case for many in the
Roxburghe collection.

Note 2: Although the common terminology is that the imprints were
of ballad printers, the ballads were actually often printed by
others, and the imprints should actually be termed that of the
publishers. The actual typesetting and printing were often
contracted out to other printers. A. M. (Augustine Mathews),
1630's, did both. Martin Parsons and John Lock printed, but did
not publish ballads.

Abbreviations for publishers of 'the company': 
 
Most dates from C. Blagden, 'Notes on the Ballad Market in the
Second Half of the Seventeenth Century', `Studies in
Bibliography', VI, 1954 (which also contains much other valuable
information). I have made slight revisions in places, from noting
imprints not seen by Blagden. Blagden noted only one John Clarke,
the one in 'the company,' who published at the Golden Lyon and at
the Bible and Harp. A John Clarke, Jr. appears, c 1680 at the
Horseshoe in West Smithfield (following R. Burton, and R.
Hardy?).

Note: Francis Coles spelled name Coules in 1620's and in the
1630's it becomes Cowles and Coles. 

'The company'
CWVG-Coles, J. Wright (II), Vere, and Gilbertson 1655-58
    -Coles, M. Wright, Vere and Gilbertson, 1658, (e.g., ZN63, 
     ZN155)
    -later we find: Martha Wright at the King's Head in the Old
     Baily (ZN749)   
CVG-Coles, Vere and Gilbertson, 1658-64
CVGW-Coles, Vere, Gilbertson and J. Wright (III), 1663-5
    -Coles, Vere, Wright, and R(achael). Gilbertson, 1665
     (several of this imprint)
CVW-Cole, Vere and Wright, 1665-74 (Changed from Blagden's
    1663-74)
CVWC-Coles, Vere, Wright and Clarke, 1674-9 [A number of ballads
    entered by this partnership on July 1, 1678 are ones
    previously published by Richard Burton, but which Burton has
    not entered]
CVWCTP- F. Coles, T. Vere, J. Wright (III), J. Clarke, W. 
    Thackeray and T. Passinger, 1679- 81 [Cole's name didn't 
    dissappear immediately on his death by Sept. 1680, and is 
    found from Nov. 1680 (ZN127|) to as late as May, 1681 
    (ZN1513|).
M. Coles, VWCTP with Mary Coles at beginning or end, 1681 
    The initial M. of Coles' widow, Mary, appears on many,
    especially in the Pepys Collection, which Blagden did not 
    examine, and are evidently to be dated 1681. In fact, she 
    survived Vere, (see next entry) so Blagden's hypothetical
    imprint Vere, Wright, Clarke, Thackeray and Passinger is 
    void, and should be replaced with the following:
WCTP, and M. Coles, mid 1681-early 1682? ZN31, ZN589, ZN2279
WCTP-J. Wright (III), J. Clarke, Thackeray and T. Passinger,
    1682-4 
Clarke, Thackeray, Passenger and T. Wright. 1684. (John's 
    widow)
CTP-Clarke, Thackeray and Passinger, 1684-6 
    Clarke, at Bible and Harp, West Smithfield, succeeded by J.
    Bissell
TP-Thackeray and Passinger, 1686-88
TPW-Thackeray, Passinger and Whitwood, before 1678 when Thackeray
    and Passinger joined company, and after May, 1666, when
    Whitwood was freed of apprenticeship.
Wm. Thackeray, 1689
TMM-Wm. Thackeray, John Millet and Alex. Milbourn, 1689-92. 
    W. Thackeray, E[liz]. M and A. M, ZN1411
    E[liz]. Millet, Nov. 1692, ZN1131, ZN1442
W. Thackeray and J. Hose, 1675, E 110 = RB7 699
P. Brooksby in West Smithfield, July 1683, (ZN2249, ZN3123)
    at Pye-Corner by the end of 1684, (ZN999)
BDBB: Brooksby, Deacon, Blare, and Back, This company seems to 
    have started in 1690. Brooksby alone published ZN1114 in June
    of 1690, but in July BDBB published ZN430 and ZN1623. All of 
    the partners, however, published separately in succeeding 
    years, as well as in the partnership. Brooksby seems to 
    disappear about 1696, and was succeeded for a very short 
    period by his widow, E. Brooksby, but I can't guarantee this 
    date. B[ridgit]. Deacon had succeeded her husband by 1702.

Licensing and Stationers' Register Entry:
   Entering or registering of broadside ballads was done
at the office of the Stationers' Company, for the primary purpose
of copyright protection. Licensing, at times when this was in
effect, was done at the Office of Revels in Whitehall for the
primary purpose of political censorship. Licensing records may
still be extant, but a personal communication of about 1970
indicated that the Office of Revels accounts were rolled and tied
in bundles, and stored, unorganized, in paste-board boxes at that
time. Ballad printers/publishers were not always conscientious in
doing either, and were often untruthful about entry statements.
Francis Grove last entered a ballad in the Stationers' Register
on May, 29, 1658, (ZN3250) but published many subsequently with
the statement 'Licensed and Entered (or 'Entred') according to
Order.'

   Usual form of licensing statement under Roger L'Strange was, c
1662-1685, 'With Allowance', but licensing statements are rather
rare in this period. 'This may be Printed. R. L. S.' seems to
have been used only from June 5, 1685, to the end of his term.
L'Strange's term as licenser lasted into at least Nov. 1685.
'This may be Printed. R.P.' was the form used during Richard
Pocock's term a licensor, c Dec. 1685 - 1688. 'Licensed according
to Order" was after Richard Pocock's term. Be careful; some
reissues copied licensing statements from earlier issues. Sara
Tyus, widow of Charles, is earliest to use 'With Allowance', and
once used 'With privilege', ZN340.


Broadside ballad editors were as careless as the printers/
publishers in use of terminology. They often said 'licensed' when
they should have said 'entered in the Stationers' Register'. 
The entry date for all extant ballads that werre entered are
given in the index below, so this should cause no problems now.
The Stationers' Register entry of date Aug. 3, 1687, for "Tobias
Observation" (ZN2547) notes that it had been licensed by R. P. on
June 7, 1686. ZN2322 and ZN2752 were licensed and entered on the
same day. ZN1499 was entered the day after it was licensed.
 
Form of index entries:

Entries are nominally; opening line, or two/ ZNnumber code|
Short title/ Tune or tunes indicated/ author or initials, if any/
licensing and|or entry statements if any/ Source of collection or
reprint of collection copy: Publisher or publishers code/ repeat
of last for other copies. In brackets are listed other copies for
which I have no information on one or more of the previous items.
Significantly different opening or title or tune is preceded by
// with quotation of the item that is different. Stationers'
Register entries, misc. notes, also in brackets at the end.
  This scheme breaks down with ballads from manuscripts, because
rarely did a MS compiler indicate the printer, and most often
there is no indication of a tune, although in rare cases the tune
was copied into the MS. Often the title is not that from a
broadside issue.
 
  A defective broadside, a love song, published by John Rastell,
c 1525, is conjecturally entitled "a wey morning" from part of
the 1st line (CLB #5). It contains music printed from type, and
apears to be the earliest broadside in Europe to have been
printed so. There is no tune direction on the broadside. The
earliest broadside ballad with a tune direction is ZN3458,
of c 1566, to the tune of "Kynge Salomon" (ZN3489, by Wm.
Elderton, 1559, and without tune direction). ZN3463 makes no
sense. It was entered in 1562/3, but was sung to "Damon and
Pythias" (=ZN3294, from MS), from a play presumed to have been
written c 1565. ZN823, of 1568/9, was sung to a hymn tune. ZN3464
of 1568/9 Next are 3 of 1570, ZN3472, ZN3487, ZN3488, all to the
tune of "Row well ye Mariners". Next is of late 1577, ZN380.
ZN3326, also of 1577, gives no tune direction, but gives the
tune. There is little evidence for broadside ballads sung to an
earlier known tune before 1568.

 
Robin Hood ballads are listed in a separate group following
the main index.

  correct. As early as 1563/4 'buy Bromes buye' was entered. 
  ZB254|. It may be the following: Quite similar is a song 
  'Conscience, with brooms at her back, singeth as folleth:' in 
  R. W.'s play `The Three Ladies of London', 1584. Burden is, 
  'New brooms, green Brooms, will you buy any, Come, maidens, 
  come quickly, let me take a penny.' This  appears may be
   related to a ballad entered on July 25, 1592, 'Conscience 
  Crye to all estates in sellinge of broom'. ZB377|. Another song
  in `The Three Ladies of London', 'The Countrey hath no peare,'
  has been identified by Rollins (with certainty) as an entry of
  Sept. 4, 1564. ZB403|. Thus it isn't unreasonable that the song
  the play was an old one, but precise connection with that in RP

to Rich. Harper in 1640. Where is a broadside edition?
4: Child A text, of "The Twa sisters" (#10) was claimed to be
from a broadside printed by Fancis Grove in 1656, but where is it
(assuming it ever was)? It differs rather trivially from that
attributed to Mr. [James] Smith in 'Musearum Deliciae', 1658.
5: Rocks of Bann/Baun/Bawn: I have a fuzzy recollection of a 17th
century song of this title that I can't now find. The Irish one
is of the late 19th century.

The core of the Euing collection was the Heber collection listed
in the sale catalog of 1834, but some of Heber's didn't get to
the Euing collection, and I know of no copy of most. Hn is the
position in the Heber sale catalog, and ZNn is to other, known,
copies. Heber's 17th century ballads not in the Euing collection
are:

Arabella, n.p., (incomplete), H54: N213|, Euing copy is complete
England's Captivity Returned, n.p., H55: N624|
A new ballad, A Warning to Youth, n.p., imperfect, H107: N1434|?
  probably not.
The Young Man's Answer to the Maiden's Resolution, J. Clarke,
  H142: probably connected with N269|, N691|, N747| 
A Pleasant song made by a Soldier, n.p., H178: N1474| 
Titus Andronicus, F. Coles, H187: N3085|, no Coles issues known 
A new made Medley, Brooksby, H188: probably N1130|
The King's Health, J. Hindmarsh, H189: not known to me
