"Milesian" makes more sense, really. Thanks for confirming that, folks. Of course, most audiences won't have any idea what you're talking about, they'll figure you're talking about militias, or Malaysians or something. But the meaning of "treason to be a Milesian" really resonates for this song.

That said, when I first heard the Andy M. Stewart recording of it, it sounded like "militian," and apparently, from what I've found the last couple of days on the Web and Deja, the liner notes to the LP have it as same. But "Milesian" feels right. Thanks again.
