W:Where are you going, my pretty maid, where are you going this morn
W:What makes you rise so early, where are you going so soon
W:With her cheeks like blooming roses the pretty maid replied
W:I am going to milk my father's cows down by the sheermount
W:[above the last word is:] Shurmont
W:(Shannon) side.
W:
W:In walking along by the side of her I stole a milking Kiss
W:Beware of such impudence, what do you mean by this
W:The ground being so unlevel her foot it chanced to slide
W:We both fell down together down by the sheermount side?
W:
W:If you will not marry me, pray tell to me your name

W:I have 500 seamen bold ploughing the ocean wide

W:Transcribed from HAM-05-054.gif - Purslow's transcription.
W:Beneath Purslow's transcription of the words are the notes:
W:If, as Hammond surmises, this is indeed "The Shannon Side" then
W:the third verse does not belong. It is part of a version of "Down
W:by the Riverside" called "captain Thunderbolt". It is strange that
W:in a version of "The Shannon Side" collected earlier (8.55) the
W:singer interpolated a verse from "The Jovial Tinker" at this point.
W:. F.E.P.
W:[in hand:]
W:Since writing the above I have actually come across a
W:broadside in the British Museum which includes the
W:"Capt. Thunderbolt" verses in "The Shannon Side"
W:[initialled:] FEP
