Williams, Alfred: Ms / FSUT: 'Here, again, the miller is introduced, this time in company with the weaver and the tailor, who are likewise satirised on account of their dishonesty. The song was widely known. I have heard it at Purton, Brize Norton and Broadwell, Oxfordshire. Obtained of Edmund Jefferies, Highworth, Wiltshire.'
