Thread Name: just as the tide' last verse
Subject: RE: just as the tide' last verse
somebody commented to me recently, that this was one of the most reprehensible verses in a traditional song, my reaction was that they clearly were not acquainted with many tradtional songs.
I don't altogether understand why one would have to be "acquainted with many traditional songs" in order to find any particular song, or verse, reprehansible.
