robinia | The Four Marys - who were they really? (95* d) | RE: The Four Mary's - who were they really? | 06 Aug 07 |
Who were they really? As Mary Garvey says, the song says all we need to know on that point. But of course, what it really dwells upon (just as Macpherson's Lament does) is the singer's brave spirit. Hence those "inexplicable" verses that contrast weeping spectators with the condemned woman's "inappropriate" dress and demeanor. |
