The studies are all brief and are not simply transcriptions of the folksongs used, but elaborations on them. All but the final study are in slow tempos and the songs they are based on are respectively: ‘Lovely on the Water’ (which is the same melody Vaughan Williams used in the second of his Five English Folksongs under the title ‘The Springtime of the Year’), ‘Spurn Point’, ‘Van Diemen’s Land’, ‘She borrowed some of her mother’s gold’, ‘The Lady and the Dragon’ and ‘As I walked over London Bridge’.

Brèves, ces études ne se contentent pas de transcrire les chansons utilisées mais les développe. Toutes, sauf la dernière, sont de tempo lent; les chansons utilisées sont, dans l’ordre: «Lovely on the Water» (mélodie également utilisée par Vaughan Williams dans la deuxième de ses Five English Folksongs, sous le titre: «The Springtime of the Year»), «Spurn Point», «Van Diemen’s Land», «She borrowed some of her mother’s gold», «The Lady and the Dragon» et «As I walked over London Bridge».

Die Etüden sind alle kurz, und keine bloßen Bearbeitungen der jeweiligen Volkslieder, sondern Ausarbeitungen. Alle bis auf die letzte haben langsame Tempi, und basieren auf folgenden Liedern: „Lovely on the Water“ (welches dieselbe Melodie ist, wie die, die Vaughan Williams in dem zweiten seiner Five English Folksongs unter dem Titel „The Springtime of the Year“ verarbeitete), „Spurn Point“, „Van Diemen’s Land“, „She borrowed some of her mother’s gold“, „The Lady and the Dragon“ und „As I walked over London Bridge“.
