Yonder Sits a Fair Young Damsel- sung by Mrs. Randall of Preston Candover, Hampshire in October, 1907. Collectors: G.B. Gardiner, and Charles Gamblin.
Yonder sits a fair young damsel,
who she is I do not know
But I will go and court her for her beauty
Let her answer be Yes or No.
Madam I am come to court you[1],
Let her answer be Yes or No.
