Hmmm. My guess it that the D'Arcy poem is the original source. We did quite a bit of research on it in this thread (click) a while back. I'd agree, though - the poem gets a little foggy, and it's much easier to follow the story in the song. I'll see what I can dig up about the songwriters. -Joe offer-
