[My title. From Bronson TTCB No. 48, Lord Bateman from Sharp MSS., 4119/. Single stanza with music.
R. Matteson 2014]
He Sailed East- Sung by Mrs. Eliza Price, Hyden, Ky., October 3, 1917.
Bronson comments: With this copy we leave the authentic range for the plagal.
He sailed East and he sailed West
He sailed till he came to the Turkish shore
And there they took him and put him in prison
He lived in hopes no freedom more.
