Note 1
Williams, Alfred: Ms: A general favourite, commonly sung by both sexes, which is the highest proof of a song's popularity. The tune was pleasant and perhaps this had something to do with its success among the villages. The copy I obtained of the late Wassail Harvey of Cricklade.
Williams, Alfred: WGS: A general favourite, commonly sung by both sexes, which is the highest proof of a songs popularity. The tune was pleasant and perhaps this had something to do with its success among the villages. The title, probably should be Erin's lovely home, since this song deals with the Emerald Isle, though since I have heard it so often, and every singer of it says Aaron I have kept to that rendering. The copy I obtained of the late Wassail Harvey of Cricklade.
Note 2
There are minor variations in punctuation between the Ms and WGS versions of the text.
