The songs sung by many folk groups tell a story

Bonie Lesley - - O, saw ye bonie Lesley, - As she gaed o'er the Border? - She's gane, like Alexander, - To spread her conquests farther! - 2. To see her is to love her, - And love but her for ever; - For Nature made her what she is, - And never made anither! - - 3. Thou airt a queen, fair Lesley- - Thy subjects, we before thee! - Thou art divine, fair Lesley- - The hearts o' men adore thee

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
