FOOTNOTES:
[101] There is an entry, July 31, 1590, of A Ditty of the fight upon the seas the fourth of June last in the Straits of Gibraltar between the George and the Thomas Bonaventure and eight galleys with three frigates (Arber, II, 557), but it is likely that there were Georges many, and only one George Aloe.
Mr Ebsworth has pointed out that a ballad called The Sailor’s Joy, the name of the tune to which ‘The George Aloe and the Sweepstake’ was to be sung, was entered in the Stationers’ Registers, January 14, 1595: Arber, II, 669.
