Sweet William's Ghost
Sweet William's Ghost (Child 77, Roud (50 )) is an English Ballad and folk song which exists in many lyrical variations and musical arrangements.〔Francis James Child, ''English and Scottish Popular Ballads'', ("Sweet William's Ghost" )〕 Early known printings of the song include Allan Ramsay's ''The Tea-Table Miscellany'' in 1740 and Thomas Percy's ''Reliques of Ancient English Poetry'' in 1765. Percy believed that the last two stanzas of the version he published were later additions, but that the details of the story they recounted (specifically the death of Margaret upon William's grave) were original.
The song is Aarne-Thompson type 365.〔D. L. Ashliman, ''(Specter Bridegrooms: folktales of Aarne-Thompson-Uther type 365 )''〕
==Synopsis==

A lover, usually named William or a variant, appears as a ghost to his love, usually Margaret or a variant. He asks her to release him from his promise to marry her. She may insist that he actually marry her, but he says that he is dead; she may insist that he kiss her, but he says that one kiss would kill her; she may insist on some information about the afterlife, and he tells her some of it; he may tell her that his promise to marry her is a hellhound that will destroy him if she does not free him. In the end she always releases him from his promise, although in some versions she then dies upon his grave.
