I just chanced upon this blog. Years ago someone inquired to me what the song "Oh Mary don't you weep" meant and that it made no sense simply because the verses bounced from unrelated, biblical historical times. I'm a musician so they assumed I would automatically know. It took the bloggers here from December 1998 to April 2010 [about 12 years] to concur on the VERY SAME conclusion it took me about a week to come up with, when posed this question. Someone "named" Gargoyle and w.y.s.i.w.y.g. [what you see is what you get] argued about it until 2002....lol
