Poor Murdered Woman - Martin Carthy[00:00:00]
It was yanky the squire as I've heard them tell[00:00:04]
He went out a hunting all on one fine day[00:00:09]
He went out a hunting but nothing he found[00:00:14]
But a poor murdered woman laid on the cold ground[00:00:19]
About eight o'clock boys our dogs they throwed off[00:00:28]
And off to the common and that was the spot[00:00:32]
They tried all the bushes but nothing they found[00:00:37]
But a poor murdered woman laid on the cold ground[00:00:42]
They whipped their dogs off and they kept them away[00:00:51]
For I do think it is proper[00:00:56]
That she should have fair play[00:00:58]
They tried all the bushes but nothing they found[00:01:01]
But a poor murdered woman laid on the cold ground[00:01:05]
They mounted their horses and they rode off the ground[00:01:15]
They rode to the village and alarmed it all around[00:01:19]
It is late in at the evening I am sorry to say[00:01:24]
She cannot be removed until the next day[00:01:28]
The next sunday morning about eight o'clock[00:01:37]
Some hundreds of the people to the spot they did flock[00:01:41]
For to see that poor creature it would make your hearts bleed[00:01:46]
Some cold hearted violence came into their heads[00:01:50]
She was took off the common and down to some inn[00:01:58]
And the man that has kept it his name is John Sim[00:02:03]
The coroner was sent for and the jury they joined[00:02:08]
And soon they concluded and they settled their mind[00:02:12]
A coffin was brought and in it she was laid[00:02:21]
And took to the churchyard in fair leatherhead[00:02:25]
No father no mother nor no friend at all[00:02:30]
Came to see the poor creature put under the mould[00:02:35]
