On Hugh of Lincoln, see the seminal account by Gavin I. Langmuir, 
'The Knight's Tale of Young Hugh of Lincoln,' *Speculum* 47 (1972),
459-482.  On his shrine, David Stocker, 'The shrine of little St. 
Hugh,' in: *Medieval Art and Architecture at Lincoln Cathedral*, eds. 
T. A. Heslop, V. A. Sekules, British Archaeological Association 
Conference Transactions 8, for 1982 (London 1986), pp. 109-117.
The ballads of little St. Hugh have been treated by Mary Diane 
McCabe, 'A Critical Study of Some Traditional Religious Ballads' 
(unpublished M.A. thesis, Durham/UK, 1980), pp. 277-298, 397-430.

Cheers,
Christoph
