Note 1
Williams, Alfred: Ms / WGS: ';An old ballad, one of those which originally emanated from seaport towns. I see Mr Frank Kidson has a copy in his ';Traditional Tunes'; which was obtained in Yorkshire. I first heard of the song at South Marston and, later, at Broadwell, Oxfordshire. Words of Edwin Warren, South Marston and Thomas Webb, Broadwell, Oxfordshire.';
Note 2
In Verse 5 Line 1 the original text read:
But the time being appointed for William to leave
In Verse 7 Line 2 the original text read:
And a sweet pleasant breeze soon took me from her view
Note 3
By mis-reading the manuscript I erroneously attributed this song to Thomas Welch. My thanks to Andrew Bathe for drawing my attention to this and provided the correct attribution.
