Note 1
Williams, Alfred: Ms / WGS: 'The following interesting fragments of songs [also Poor fisherboy] I discovered at Brinkworth. They are all old, and have been popular in their time. Words supplied by Jonathon Cole, the aged gamekeeper.'
Note 2
There are minor differences in punctuation between Ms and WGS.
Note 3
The published version of this song only has the name of the town as Malmesbury as a note. The words are identical to those given in the manuscript as being collected from Jonathon Cole of Brinkworth. The only difference is that the manuscript contains a chorus.
