The comments state the second stanza implies the couple broke up because of money issues. Where is this implied? --72.221.67.18 (talk) 06:12, 31 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

The air: which is which?

edit

The article mentions at least three different melodies (traditional, by Rebecca Clarke, and by John Ireland, respectively). Which one is the popular one, found on YouTube and in virtually every songbook?
