About This Book

The volume gathers folk ballads, lyric and narrative songs, pastoral and shepherd tunes, drinking and comic verses, love and patriotic songs, children's rhymes, greetings, funeral laments, riddles and prose tales from a single rural county, arranged in sections with brief editorial notes. It preserves local variants of recurring folk motifs, seasonal and work songs, play chants and counting rhymes, and records oral performance forms alongside editorial commentary. The sequence moves from balladry and adult song genres into nursery material and collected legends, offering a broad cross‑section of one locality's vernacular traditions.
