Description

The Hazards of Love I (The Prettiest Whistles Won't Wrestle the Thistles Undone)

My true love went riding out in white and green and grey
Past the pale of Offa's Wall where she was wont to stray
And there she came upon a white and wounded fawn

Singing oh, the hazards of love

She being full of charity, a credit to her sex
Sought to right the fawn's hind legs
When here her plans were vexed

The Taiga shifted strange
The beast began to change
Singing oh, the hazards of love
Singing oh, the hazards of love
You'll learn soon enough
The prettiest whistles won't wrestle the thistles undone
Undone

Fifteen lithesome maidens lay
Along in their bower
Fourteen occupations paid
To pass the idle hour
But Margaret heaves a sigh
Her hands clapsed to her thigh
Singing oh, the hazards of love
Singing oh, the hazards of love
You'll learn soon enough
The prettiest whistles won't wrestle the thistles undone
Undone
Undone
Undone


---------------------------------------

Margaret first meets her love, William, in the form of a faun.

I should really, really be doing homework, but I found the perfect stock for this and I just couldn't resist. I relistened to the song, and I realized I got a few details wrong, but this is pretty much what I visualize when I listen to it.
