"William Taylor" is an old ballad. It was a popular street song in the first half of the 18th century.
==Story==
Several versions exist,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.contemplator.com/england/williamt.html )〕 but the story of the song concerns a young couple due to be wed. On the morning of the wedding, the groom ''William Taylor'' (''Billy'' in some versions) is pressed into service. The bride searches for him, disguising herself as a man to become a soldier〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://mudcat.org/Detail.CFM?messages__Message_ID=180579 )〕 or sailor.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.joe-offer.com/folkinfo/songs/109.html )〕 When her true gender is revealed (usually in an incident involving accidental exposure of her breasts), the captain points her in the direction of her beloved, but mentions that he now has a new suitor. When she finds him, she shoots him and his new bride. In some versions, she is then rewarded by the captain with command of her own ship.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://mudcat.org/@displaysong.cfm?SongID=641 )〕
