This colorful folk song describes the tale of a man's "graymare" that is loaned to a friend for a trip to WiddicombeFair. After being loaned continually to other friends, thehorse eventually returns to its original owner as a ghostappearing "ghastly white" with a "rattling of bones."It's good for phrasing practice in 3/4 and the cheerful littletune is a "gem" of the genre.
