%%text LEB notes in the MS:
%%text Mrs. Joiner mixed her air with another version, used also to the "Died of Love" words and "The Sailing Trade" 
%%text ("A sailor's life (or the sailing trade) is a merry one"). Subjoined are the variants which cropped up, together
%%text with the major ending which she used many times when getting puzzled between the airs. The beginning of the
%%text subjoined is the same as L.E.Broadwood's collected tune to "The Sailor's Life" in Folk Song Journal Vol. 1 No. 4.
