If Tam Lin has a lesson I suppose it is that we must hold fast to our loves no matter how monstrous they grow.
Oh, Janet, or Margaret, however you are remembered — your green kirtle persisting better than your name (that ought to tell you something)
You were no doubt strong as well as tenacious — did it not occur to you you might be merely persisting in folly?
As for me — well, it’s my experience that sometimes it’s better to leave to the faeries their playthings.
