A sub-page of "The Mudcat Cafe," a complex site dedicated to blues and folk music. Among other things, it maintains a "Digital Tradition Folk Music Database" of song lyrics and, in some cases, related music scores. The lyrics in the database are searchable by keyword and, through an alphabetical index, by title.

This sub-page reproduces a score and a text of "Banks of Allan Water," a song which figures prominently in Hardy's Far from the Madding Crowd.



COMMENT:

The source of the material on this page is partially identified by the following words: "by Monk Lewis / printed in Cole's Folk Songs of England, Ireland, Scotland, & Wales / SOF."
