Brilliant!!!   What a great performance and such a fine voice........are you near Combe, St. Nicholas?  That church is on my list of places to visit one day with the expectation that the graves of far distant ancestors interred there centuries ago might be located.

Beautiful rendition. In 1903 in a vicarage garden of a Somerset village Cecil Sharpe heard the gardner John England Sing the Seeds of Love quietly to himself as he mowed the law, Cecil wrote the tune down in a note book and  John gave Cecil the words.He immediately harmonised the song and later that day the song was sung at a choir supper.This I think was the start of his great work as a collector.
