All the Trees- Henry Stansbridge (58 years old) of Lyndhurst , Hampshire on 27 September, 1906. Collector: Gardiner, G.B. Guyer, John F.
All the trees they are so high, and the leaves they are so green,
The day is past and gone, sweetheart, that you and I have seen.
It's cold winter's night, you and I must bide alone;
Whilst my pretty lad is young, And is growing.
