The songs sung by many folk groups tell a story

Lord Thomas of Winesberry - . - As I look'd over the castle wall - To see what I could see, - O what should I spy but my own father's ship - |: Come sailing along the sea. :| - 2. O what is the matter, my daughter, Jane? - That you do look so wan? - I fear you have had some ill sickness, - |: Or been courting with some young man. :| - - 3. O no! I've not had an ill sickness, - Nor been courting with any young man, - But I have been sick, and sick to my heart, - |: Since you've been so long at sea. :|

Quotations about folk groups and their instruments crop up throughout literature. Here are some quotations:-

The fashion for popular airs has spread quickly throughout the musical world. From east to west the tiniest villages have been ransacked, and simple tunes, plucked from the mouths of hoary peasants, find themselves, to their consternation, trimmed with harmonic frills.~ Debussy
