Thread Name: Origins: Lagan Love
Subject: LAGAN LOVE QUERY
On Lagan Love on the database there are attempts to explain some words. Can anyone offer any explanation (or explanation futher to the database) on the meaning of:

verse 1 - "like a love-sick lennan-shee" verse 2 - "I steal unto her shieling lorn / And thru the dorring peep" verse 3 - "And when I stir my soot to go" (is this a typo? should it be "foot to go"?) And is Lagan the name of a place?

Any help anyone?
