   Comments: Additional information/information additionnelle: Both of these songs are traditional, included in Shakespeare's "Twelfth night", and provided in Louis Charles Elson's "Shakespeare in Music" of 1901. According to Elson, William Chappell attributes the melody for "When that I was a little tiny boy" to someone by the name of Fielding. It is unlikely that Shakespeare is responsible for the lyrics of either song.
