Yea! Thank you all for the clarifications. I never would have come up with gate for "yett." I wanted to make it Loud the iron, yet does clank, but still couldn't figure out the iron part. And "cuist" makes much more sense as cast than "cruist" that's in the database.

Does anyone know the derivation of "carry" as "firmament?"

I'll go to the Bodley Ballads site later. Sounds like a great resource.

Thanks again for the help. Now we have to memorize it.
