X:1 T:Hob y Deri Danno [1] T:Away my herd to the Oaken grove M:2/4 L:1/8 R:Air N:”An invitation to the Oaken Grove was usual with lovers N:in former times: also, to drive Hogs to feed on acorns.” N:”This favourite air is sung very differently in South Wales to N:what it is in North Wales, & both so pretty that I am N:perplexed in the choice; therefore shall present my N:readers with both.” N:The burden perhaps should be sung by another person.
