Trees They Do Grow- Mrs. Whiting (Mon) 1908 Butterworth
[From: Lucy Broadwood Manuscript Collection (LEB/5/102/1)
Three music versions with the text for the first. Although this text is included with Mrs. Whiting's melody, it's probably the text of William Smith from whom Butterworth collected a complete text in 1907.

The Trees They Do Grow High- sung by Mrs. Whiting of Newport, Monmouthshire in April, 1908. Collector: Butterworth, George
The trees they do grow high, and the leaves they do grow green
The days are past and gone, my love, that you and I have seen,
On a cold winter's night my love, when we together have been,
So fare you well my bonny boy, forever.
