From Folktales of the Jews: Tales from Eastern Europe. All about date of composition, early references to it, and so on. It is unlikely I will have time to track down each of these references in turn. But it a great collection of scholarly info about the song. As compared, for example, to the Wikipedia article which lacks any hint of this, and gives a mistaken impression (IMHO) of what "it would have been enough" refers to.
