Thread Name: Lay the bent to the bonnie broome? Meaning?
Subject: RE: Lay the bent to the bonnie broome? Meaning?
this thread is that old but I looked for the meaning now for the song "cruel sister"

I think it could be a double-meaning, once the marriage (like mentioned above) and sleeping (sleeping egual to dying). The two things are important in the song.

PS: sorry for the bad English, I'm German
