Ancient Poems, Ballads, and Songs of the Peasantry of England

The "Ancient Poems, Ballads, and Songs of the Peasantry of England" is a collection of traditional literature that has been cherished in remote villages and has resisted modern influences. This literature provides a faithful record of the feelings, practices, and ways of life of the rural population, making it valuable from a historical perspective. Unfortunately, this collection has been largely overlooked by antiquarians until recently. The collection includes a variety of poems, ballads, and songs that offer insight into the lives of the English peasantry.
