History is reflected in the words of traditional folk songs

   Proud Sally - - A sailor from Dover, from Dover he came - He courted lovely Sally and Sally was her name; - But still she walked so lofty and her fortune was so high, - That she on a sailor would scarce cast an eye. - 2. A few months being over and a few months being past, - This fair she began to grow sick at the last - She grew sick at the last and she couldn't tell for why - And she sent for the sailor that she oftimes did deny. - - 3. "Am I the doctor, that you sent for me? - Or am I the young man that you sent for me"? - "Oh yes, you're the doctor, you can either kill or cure, - The pain that I feel, dear, is hard to endure." - - 4. "Where does the pain lie, does it lie in your head? - Or where does the pain lie, does it lie in your side"? - "Oh indeed, young man, you're not far off the guess - The pain that I feel lies under my left breast."

 
 

Quotations about Scottish Folk Bands.      

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

There are in the music of the violin ... accents so closely akin to those ofcertain contralto voices that one has the illusion that a singer has taken her place amid the orchestra. One raises one’s eyes, and sees only the wooden case, delicate as a Chinese box, but at moments, one is still tricked by the Siren’s deceiving call; at times too, one thinks one is listening to a captive genie struggling in the darkness of the sapient, quivering and enchanted box, like a devil immersed in a stoup of holy water; sometimes, again, it is in the air, at large, like a pure and supernatural being that unfolds its invisible message as it goes by. Marcel Proust
