THE CRUEL MOTHER—G

[_]

Notes and Queries, 1st S., viii, 358. From Warwickshire, communicated by C. Clifton Barry.

1

There was a lady lived on [a] lea,
All alone, alone O
Down by the greenwood side went she.
Down the greenwood side O

2

She set her foot all on a thorn,
There she had two babies born.

3

O she had nothing to lap them in,
But a white appurn, and that was thin.
