History is reflected in the words of many songs of many folk groups

   Amang the Trees - - Amang the trees, where humming bees - At buds and flowers were hinging, O, - Auld Caledon drew out her drone, - And to her pipe was singing, O. - 'Twas Pibroch, Sang, Strathpeys, and Reels, - She dirl'd them aff fu' clearly, O, - When there cam a yell o' foreign squeels, - That dang her tapsalteerie, O! 2. Their capon craws an' quer 'ha, ha's,' - - hey made our lugs grow eerie, O - The hungry bike did scrape and pike, - Till we were wae and weary, O. - But a royal ghaist, wha ance was cas'd - A prisoner aughteen year awa, - He fir'd a Fiddler in the North, - That dang them tapsalteerie, O!

 
 

What has been said about Folk Groups.      

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

A certain Music, never known before, Here soothed the pensive melancholy Mind; The God of Winds drew Sounds of deep Delight: Whence, with just Cause, The Harp of Aeolus it Light. Ah me! what hand can touch the strings so fine? Who up the lofty Diapason roll, Such sweet, such sad, such solemn Airs divine, Then let them down again into the Soul? ~ James Thomson
