Reminds me of the old cheaters-classics Illustrated back in the 1950's. Never had to read it, just scan the comic book and take the test. I suggest Peggy Seeger's American Variant of this ballad.

This is beautiful! I like the comic a lot. I admit, the singing style took me a bit of getting used to, but it is done very tastefully. Some versions of this ballad take place around Christmas time. That's how I was reminded of the song today.

FASHES in the flood. Not flashes Fashes = troubles. As in "Dinnae fash yersel" = do not trouble/worry/bother yourself.

Thank you for pointing this out. She cursed the seas to remain stormy until the day her sons return. I sang fishes in the flood for a while before I found out that fashes is indeed a word.
