Thread Name: Lyr Req: Hori-Horo (from Shirley Collins)
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Hori Horo
The "correct" spelling in this case is neither "ain" nor "ane", but the spelling used by the man who wrote the lyric: "own". Your instinct is right on that score. People are at liberty to pronounce it however they like.
