| Programme Note | O see ye not yon narrow road So thick beset with thorns and briers? That is the path of righteousness Though after it but few enquires. And see ye not yon braid, braid road That lies across yon lily leven? That is the path of wickedness Though some call it the road to heaven. And see ye not that bonny road That winds about the ferny brae? That is the road to fair Elfland Where you and I this night maun gae. -The Queen of Elfland to Thomas The Rhymer (Traditional Scots Ballad) |
