As it befell in midsummer-time 197
As it fell on a holy-day 216
Ettrick Forest is a fair forest 183
I heard a carping of a clerk 92
In merry Scotland, in merry Scotland 213
In summer, when the leaves spring 113
In summer, when the shaws be sheen 96
I will never eat nor drink, Robin Hood said 141
Johnny he has risen up i' the morn 178
Lythe and listin, gentilmen 6
Mery it was in grene forest 148

Strike up, you lusty gallants 219

POPULAR BALLADS OF THE OLDEN TIME
Selected and Edited by FRANK SIDGWICK
FIRST SERIES.
Ballads of Romance and Chivalry. 1903.
'It forms an excellent introduction to a sadly neglected source of
poetry.' --_Athenaeum._
'There can be nothing but praise for the selection, editing, and notes,
which are all excellent and adequate. It is, in fine, a valuable volume
of what bids fair to be a very valuable series.' --_Academy._
'The most serviceable edition of the ballads yet published in England.'
--_Manchester Guardian._
SECOND SERIES.
Ballads of Mystery and Miracle and Fyttes of Mirth. 1904.
'It includes many beautiful and well-known ballads, and no pains have
been spared by the editor in producing them, so far as may be, in their
entirety.' --_World._
'The second volume . . . carries out the promise of the first. . . .
Even after Professor Kittredge's compressed edition of Child, . . .
Mr. Sidgwick's work abundantly justifies its existence.' --_Manchester
Guardian._
THIRD SERIES.
