Excerpt from Popular Ballads of the Olden Time

Ballad editors of yore were confronted with perhaps two, perhaps twenty, versions of each ballad; some unintelligibly fragmentary, some intelligibly complete; some in print, some in manuscript, some, perchance, in their own memories. Collating these, they subjected the text to minute revision, omitting and adding, altering and inserting, to suit their personal tastes and standards, literary! Or polite; and having thus made it over, forgot to record the act, and saw no reason to apologise therefor.
