Notes

Note 1
Williams, Alfred: Ms / WGS: 'Obtained at Tetbury. Formerly popular alongside the Thames to Lechlade. The piece probably had its origin in the wars with France at the end of the eighteenth century.'
Note 2
In Verse 3 Line 4 the original text read:
Let they who make the quarrels be the only men to fight.
Note 3
Williams does not identify the singer but his only source in Tetbury was Mrs. Russell, so I have assigned the song to her.
