London bridge is broken down,
Dance over, my Lady Lea!
London bridge is broken down,

With gay ladye!
This was the first StanZa of very
popular ballad, called The Doleful La
ment of London Bridge" first printed
in a curions book called "Gammer Cur
toms Garland; or, the Nursery Parnas-
sus: Choice Collection of Pretty
Songs and Verses for the Amusement
of Good Little Children Who Can
Neither Read Nor Rum"
On occasion of this accident to the
bridge, commissioners were appointed
to decide upon the best way of rebuild
ing it, and they were so long about it
and had so many disputes-some advis-
ing one thing and some another, and
each raising objections to what was pro-
posed by the reSt-that the people grew
impatient, and ridiculed the affair i'll
some verses added to the original lines:
How shall we build it up again?
Dance over, my Lady Lea!
How shall we build it up again?
With gay ladye!
Build it up with silver and goldl
Dance over. my Lady Lea.
Silver and gold will be stolen away
With gay ladye!
And so on, proposing by turns wood,
brick. straw, and clay, until at last the
commissioners decided upon stone,
when the final SUanZa was added:
Build it up with stone so strong,
Dance over, my Lady Lea.
Huzza, twill last for ages long
With gay ladye!
An Englishman, writing in list, just
100 years ago-to the Gentleman'S Mag
aZine. says that he remembers when
this ballad was sung by the children of
London and Bristol in their street play
on moonlight summer nights. They
would move around i'll a circle with
joined hands, with one posted in the
center and called 1.-The bridge master"
would chant the inquiry, "How shall
we build it up again?" at the same time
drawing out one from the circle whose
duty it was to chant the reply, naming
| any material he chose, the rest joining
in the refrain. If any mistakes We're
made in mentioning materials not suit
able for bridge building, a forfeit
would be incurred and the culprit
chased around the circle until caught.
when he in turn became 'sbridge-
master" 1t was merry game, and
the children's voices, chanting in per-
feet time, sounded very sweetly ON the
| still evening air.

Old London Bridge,

In the reign of Edward II. there was
a master or keeper of London bridge,
whose duty it was to see that it was
kept in repair. This same keeper
bought land on the River Lea. near
Stratford. from an old and noble family
of the same name of Lea, and he was
granted permission by the king to
collect tolls on the Lea bridge just
so long as London bridge was
kept in perfect repair: and this greatly
offended the Lea family, who claimed
an ancient right of a free passage
across. At length, however, in the
year 1910, several arches of London
bridge were washed away, says the
Leeds Mercury, and until they should
be rebuilt no tolls could be collected on
the Lea bridge. 1t was probably in
reference to this incident that the rhyme
was made, familiar to every child in the
land:
