Note 1
Williams, Alfred: Ms / WGS: “A very old favourite, now rarely met with anywhere. It was evidently written about 1750, during Lord Clives war with the French in India. Obtained at Stratton St Margaret.”
Note 2
The tune used for the recording is fairly common. The text as printed appears to be a contraction text omitting the usual repeats which are included in the recording. My thanks to Bob Jesshop without whose assistance this would not have been possible.
