An Buachaill Caol Dubh | Help: Britten's The Highland Balou: Highland terms (41) | RE: Info Required: Highland terms | 09 Jun 11 |
Having looked at the other thread, where the "craigie" word is rhymed with "naigie" (which I've never encountered elsewhere, but that's not an indication that the word is made up for purposes of rhyming), I guess that there's some suggestion of the child eventually being hanged (Scots, "hingit") for horse-thieving. |
