Cecil Sharp's Note 31 (1916)

No. 31. Sweet Kitty

The tune, which is in the Dorian mode, was used in Mr. Granville Barker’s production of Hardy’s Dynasts, being set to the words, “My Love’s gone a-fighting.” The words, which are related to those of Brimbledon Fair (No. 75), have been compiled from several versions that I have collected.
