Note 2
In Verse 1 Line 8 the original text read:
For a twelve month and one day
In Verse 2 Line 1 the original text read:
When a twelve month and a day was gone
In Verse 3 Line 5 the original text was:
Go, fetch me not from a dungeon deep,
The original text was laid out in eight line stanzas but there is a note by Williams to use four line verses and it was in this form that it was printed.
