Jon Bartlett- I did read your article, in fact it's on my sire :), along with a dozen others :) I liked the psychological insights from that article I've surmised three main emotional forces:

1) The lord's abandonment of his lady, her abandoning her baby 2) his guilt for not paying the mason, his guilt as leaving her unprotected; her guilt about leaving her baby unprotected and 3) his fear of retribution, her fear of death; the fear generated by Lamkin and the nurse.

I recommend you read Adam Ganz's article 'Leaping broken narration': Ballads, Oral Storytelling and the Cinema. Do you agree with these three or are there more?

Jim Brown- Does this mean you are writing an article about colors? :)

Gutcher- Only you could find Lambkins grave. And where was that again?
Turn right at Prime Castle, . . .

Anyone who would build a whole castle without getting paid anything deserves to die!!
