A new ballad of the three merry butchers [electronic resource] : and ten high-way men, how three butchers went to pay five hundred pounds away, and hearing a woman crying in the wood, went to relieve her, and were there set upon by these ten high-way men; and how only stout Johnson fought with them all, who killed eight of the ten; and at last was killed by the woman he went to save in the wood. To an excellent new tune.
