minstrel: *GASP* I WAS WRONG!!!!

[Katherine Penney]

So, I was doing the same old research this weekend...and I accidentally 
stumbled upon documentation for Mad Tom o Bedlam...

Seems that Tom o Bedlam dates to a broadside of 1615.  In the book I was 
looking at, there was only one verse listed (The ____'s my constant 
mistress...) but it was definitely VERY similar to the version that 
[Tamar?] originally posted.  I checked another book and found a tune whose 
alternate title is (yep, you got it) Mad Tom o Bedlam.

I'm actually quite surprised and humbled by my error, and I'm thinking of 
transferring my subscription to the mailing list to my home account so I 
have my books handy, to keep things like this from happening.

I apologize for guessing rather than documenting.

Humbly,
Constance
