Ritmo delle scolte modenesi [O tu qui servas armis ista moenia]

anonimo

Un'interpretazione moderna del Ritmo delle scolte modenesi

O Tu Qui Servas

The "Song of the Watchmen of Modena," 9th century Latin poem.

Nota. Video reperito su YouTube ad opera di "StrudelMan". Interessante resa con musica (campionatura?) "ad hoc" e testo completo, ma senza interpolazioni.

Johnny Has Gone For A Soldier [Siúil a ruin; Shule Aroon]

anonimo

"Rod and Reel" implies fishing equipment. This is incorrect. She is selling her flax and spinning equipment: her roc (distaff), reel (skein winder), and spinning wheel. By doing this she has reduced herself to poverty and (in this version) is resorting to prostitution with her red petticoats, thus shaming her parents.

Some insight into the real history of this song: "Buttermilk" (and "Portland", in at least one version) are almost certainly a corruption (in my opinion) of Portumna in Galway, Ireland, site of the Wild Geese Heritage Museum*. Portumna Castle is surely on a hill, and the Wild Geese were Irish soldiers serving in various European countries in the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries, especially those who went to France in 1691. (*Flight of the Wild Geese, Wikipedia)
