    <credit-words default-x="108" default-y="962" valign="top" xml:space="preserve">* These two notes appear as G, not A in the original MS, which may be the reason for RWV's comment of "doubtful". In the 
published version of this same song, on p.22 of the Penguin Book of English Folk Songs (1959), RVW wrote these notes as A
as shown above. For better or for worse, the editors here have retained the A for consistency with the published version.</credit-words>
