Williams, Alfred: Ms / WGS: 'Most, if not all of the old the execution songs are about identical in style and sentiment, and repentance is always expressed in the last stanza or so. We wonder what they would have been like if they had actually been penned by the culprit? The difference in the point of view would have been striking no doubt. Obtained of David Sawyer.'
