Folksongs, ballads, carols, riddles, occasional quatrains and couplets - English popular verse draws on all of these and centres its traditions on none. Verses stay in the memory and are passed down orally through the centuries; sometimes their meaning is obscured on the way and they achieve an extra dimension of mystery and beauty.
