Review* - boys of bedlam is an arrangement - to original music, so far as i know - of the anonymous poem, "tom o'bedlam", found in the british museum ms. "everyday book" i first saw ref'ed as "giles earle, his booke" c.1615 a.d./ce in the wondrous anthology edited and feetnoted by walter de la mere, "come hither" (q.v.).
it doubtless has its own british museum ms. ref. no, as important to it (and to scholars) as any 45cat or "33cat" no.- but i do not know it, offhand. (if i remember to, i'll look it up & emend this.)
it's highly recommended, and has been a mild obsession of mine for some fifty years :-).
giles earle's everyday book is dated to the first half of the seventeenth century a.d./ce as he was a living musician and collector of songs "floreat" ("flourishing" = alive and working) circa (around) 1615 c.e.(a.d.)
"when i was on horseback" is also, and perhaps better-known as "lock hospital"; this was a common name for the secure - and armed-guarded - hospitals set up to restrain the incurable infectious to prevent them spreading the diseases they carried, frequently venereal diseases.
