Variations in a fragment of the same, remembered by another person: F. Kidson.
11 Oh are you going to...
7 Tell her ...
Sow it all over with sand.
9 Reap it with ...
And tie it ...
And then she shall be ...

Where no water sprung nor a drop of rain fell,
And tell her to wash it in yonder dry well,
Or never be a true lover of mine.
