Coyote, I think Clinton is talking about Child #299 The Trooper and the Maid, which has the line he is referring to. Your "L" do not cause line breaks - that is <> with br in between the brackets.

Clinton - I think that is the most mysterious line in the song. The rest of it seems fairly straight forward, but then I sing a lot of Scots songs. What else in the song do want help with?
