"The Whummil Bore" (Roud 3722, Child 27) is an English-language folk song. A whummil is a tool for drilling holes.
Synopsis
The narrator served the king seven years and "saw his daughter only once"—meaning saw her naked, through a whummil bore. She was being dressed by her maids.
Commentary
Only one variant of this ballad exists.[1] "Hind Horn" appears to contain a stanza from it.[2]
