Note 1
Williams, Alfred: WGS: An old song, that was sung to a plaintive melody. I have heard of it but near the Downs of Wiltshire. Obtained of David Sawyer.
Note 2
This is from a section of the Bathe Clissold Index which states that it is:
'A list of songs known to have been noted by Williams - vide his own 'List of songs copies' [from his notebooks] - the manuscripts of which are no longer extant. [The original owners of Williams' manuscripts destroyed a number of song texts thinking they were on no use.]
I have continued the numbering sequence adopted by Bathe Clissold to encompass these songs.
