Book The English and Scottish Popular Ballads

Download or read book The English and Scottish Popular Ballads written by Francis James Child and published by Courier Corporation. This book was released on 2003-09-08 with total page 550 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rich field of English balladry was virgin territory before Francis James Child entered it. The few published ballad editions that existed were unreliable, filled with unacknowledged editorial changes and distortions of the original manuscripts. Professor Child compiled all the extant ballads with all known variants, and made them available for the first time — together with his invaluable commentary that prefaces each work — in a single source that maintained absolute fidelity to the original texts. Published between 1882 and 1898, the original ten-part study became the definitive collection of popular ballads in the English language, never to be superceded. To this day, scholars and devotees speak of "The Child Ballads" with the awe and respect generated by few other literary works. Volume 1: Parts I and II of the original set, ballads 1-53 including "Edward," "Lord Randal," "Tam Lin," "Lady Isabel and the Elf-Knight," "Earl Brand," "Thomas Rymer," more. Biographical sketch of Child by Prof. Kittredge, Child's portrait, additions and corrections.

Download or read book Wayfaring Strangers written by Fiona Ritchie and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2021-08-01 with total page 577 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the seventeenth through the nineteenth centuries, a steady stream of Scots migrated to Ulster and eventually onward across the Atlantic to resettle in the United States. Many of these Scots-Irish immigrants made their way into the mountains of the southern Appalachian region. They brought with them a wealth of traditional ballads and tunes from the British Isles and Ireland, a carrying stream that merged with sounds and songs of English, German, Welsh, African American, French, and Cherokee origin. Their enduring legacy of music flows today from Appalachia back to Ireland and Scotland and around the globe. Ritchie and Orr guide readers on a musical voyage across oceans, linking people and songs through centuries of adaptation and change.

" What can a woman do, love, I'll do for ye;" Muckle can a woman do, ye canna do for me."--" Lay about, steer about, lay our ship cannie, Do all ye can to save my dear Annie." " I've laid about, steer'd about, laid about cannie, But all I can do, she winna sail for me. Ye'll tak her in your arms twa, lo, lift her cannie, And throw her out owre board, your ain dear Annie." Fe, fowk--people on the verge of death. He has tane her in his arms twa, lo, lifted her cannie, He has thrown her out owre board, his ain dear Annie. As the ship sailed, bonnie Annie she swam, And she was at Ireland as soon as them. He made his love a coflin off the Goats of Yerrow, And buried his bonnie love doun in a sea valley. THERE is a prevalent belief among sea-faring people, that, if a person who has committed any heinous crime be on ship-board, the vessel, as if conscious of its guilty burden, becomes unmanageable, and will not sail till the offender be removed: to discover whom, they usually resort to the trial of those on board, by casting lots; and the individual upon whom the lot falls is declared the criminal, it being believed that Divine Providence interposes in this manner to point out the guilty person. It would be difficult to ascertain where Yerrow is situated; it would seem, however, to be on the seacoast, as " Goats" signifies inlets where the sea enters. " Keep 'weel, keep weel, your half-year's fee, For ye'll soon get a sicht o' your Johnie; But anither woman has my heart, And I am sorry for to leave ye." ' Y etts--gates.-1-Dow. doun-go your way.
