Thanks all for the positive comments.Dusty-I can see the "werefox" notion,nevertheless I see Reynardine as more of a vampire-Svengali figure..a bit closer to "human" than a werewolf.A friend of mine often comes back from visiting Finland with gorgeous fabrics...one of them features foxes standing on hind legs like humans.I think it's a sub-conscious thing with Europeans,whereas wolves are seen as more malevolent.
I neglected to say: the D a dd dulcimer is capoed at the 4th. fret...it gives you what I call the "Sweet Home Alabama" chords,A,G,D.

You create a great atmosphere with this song Jamie. Much enjoyed it!
Great rendition of great old ballad.
Your voice and play work just right with an old ballad, Jamie.
I believe a reynardine is a werefox. We hear a lot about werewolves, but less about werefoxes.
Nice job with this old ballad! I'm sure there's a category of ballads that center on warning women about the dangers of strange men.
