GUEST,Ewan McVicar Folklore: Scottish Women and song (21) RE: Folklore: Scottish Women and song 17 Jul 24

Tracked down Norman's version in Tobar an Dualchais website. He calls it The Forester. Here is the rack description.
Ballad in which a young woman is seduced by a forester in the king's service. He then tries to evade her, but she chases him to the king's court and demands justice. The king commands him to marry the woman, upon which it is revealed that she is the daughter of a lord, and he only a blacksmith's son.
