Sandy Paton	euphemistic for sex? folk songs? (88* d)	RE: euphemistic for sex? folk songs?	27 Aug 99
Well, there's been a lot of "rolling in the dew" going on in folksong for a few centuries. I once suggested to the folks who were recording the song for me that "One Man Shall Mow My Meadow" might have some less obvious meaning and they were shocked by the idea. Although Gershon Legman doesn't agree, a few people have suggested that keeping the lass from "the foggy dew" suggests something other than atmospheric conditions. Sandy
