Composed by New England Folkson. Arranged by Derek Larson. A Cappella,Contemporary,Folk,Traditional. Octavo. 5 pages. Derek Larson #3242163. Published by Derek Larson (A0.1011384).An a cappella setting for SSAA chorus of allegedly one of the first ballads to come from the Northeastern American colonies. Though the comedic text and music are more common, this public domain tune and story are arranged here to dramatically tell the tragic story of a young man whose life as an adult was just beginning when he was struck by a poisonous serpent as he mowed a field alone. Choirs will love the wistful melody and harmonies found in this rich arrangement of a piece of colonial history.
