It is one of the oldest forms in English, older than Chaucer, and is one of the few that are of native growth. Originally it was sung from village to village, to the accompaniment of a harp or a fiddle, by a strolling singer or bands of singers, who earned a living in this way.

Specifically, previous version described a ballad as often containing 13 lines and employing couplets, among other things. Edits here make this article more consistent with highly-respected public sources on poetry, especially Poetry Foundation. Edits here are also more consistent with the observable features of actual ballads. undo Tag: Visual edit
