Excerpt from English Folk-Songs
Yes, one man at all events had taken the trouble, and had found out for himself that the country people in one small corner of Sussex were in the habit of singing. This one man was John Broadwood - whose name is to be honoured in the annals of English folk-song - who went about among the people of Sussex collecting their songs, which he published under the title of Sussex Songs, in 1843.

About the Author:
Excerpt. © Reprinted by permission. All rights reserved.:
Ralph Vaughan Williams (1872-1958) was one of England's greatest composers, and among the first people to travel the countryside to collect folk songs and preserve them for future generations.
A. L. Lloyd (1908-1982), usually known as Bert, was a folk singer and folklorist who grew up listening to his mother singing gypsy songs, and eventually wrote them down. Together with Vaughan Williams, he helped rescue traditional English music from extinction.
`A maid again I never shall be, Till apples grow on an orange tree'
