[edit] Incorrect title of piece, and thus this article

Can anyone point to a credible source which substantiates that this piece is correctly titled ..ON... versus what I believe, and do find reference to, ....OF.... that is: Five Variants Of Dives and Lazarus, not Five Variants On Dives and Lazarus. In doing a Google, the only places which "ON" comes up are those places which directly copy the the content of this Wiki article. With one unfortunate exception, the RVW society pages, correctly lists "OF" in the title in its listings of the works of RVW, but does also elsewhere use "ON" once when referring to it in a non-listing sense. All CD and LP recordings of it I have use "OF" and though I can't put my hand on it at the moment, I believe Kennedy in his book also uses "OF" so I would say ON is off and OF is it and this article should be renamed and the piece's title in the RVW article proper also be renamed.

[edit] Kingsfold Tune

Does this article refer to the tune of Kingsfold? If so, it is valuable to mention that "Dives and Lazarus," "Star of the County Down," " Sing a Song of Bethlehem," "I Heard the Voice of Jesus Say," and "If You Could Hie to Kolob" all use this same tune. Kail Ceannai 08:50, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
