Crazy how these old English folk songs have such a beatles vibe!

"Gamble Gold of the gay green woods".
How genuinely delightful is that phrase!

This kind of alliteration was a defining feature of early English poetry! I think prior to rhyming schemes sort of taking over poetic structure. Read something like Sir Gawain and the Green Knight for loads of this 😃
