Compact Disc (CD) + Digital AlbumIn Volume 3:
More medieval melodrama!
Including, but not limited too-
Murder, mysticism, magic, marriage, tragic love and cruel vengeance.
An elfin knight, a wicked sister and a Really Creepy Town.
Another talking bird. (A very fine bird.)
And a ram worthy of P. T. Barnum.

lyrics
THE TWO SISTERS traditional
There were two sisters of County Clare
Oh, the wind and the rain
One was dark and the other was fair
Oh the dreadful wind and rain
And they both were in love with the miller’s son
Oh the wind and the rain
But he was fond of the fairest one
Oh the dreadful wind and rain
So she pushed her into the river to drown
Oh the wind and the rain
And watched her as she floated down
Oh, the dreadful wind and rain
She floated down to the Miller’s pond
Oh, the wind and rain
Dead on the water like a golden swan
Oh, the dreadful wind and rain
As she came to rest on the riverside
Oh the wind and the rain
Her bones were washed by the rolling tide
Oh, the dreadful wind and rain
Along the road came a fiddler fair
Oh the wind and rain
And found her bones just a lying’ there
Oh, the dreadful wind and rain
So he made a peg of her long finger bone
Crying oh the wind and rain
So he made a peg of her long finger bone
Crying’ oh the dreadful wind and rain
And he strung his fiddle bow with her long yellow hair
Oh the wind and rain
And he strung his fiddle bow with her long yellow hair
Oh the dreadful wind and rain
He made a fiddle of her breast bone
Cried oh, the wind and rain
He made a fiddle of her breast bone
Oh, the dreadful wind and rain
But the only tune that fiddle could play
Was oh, the wind and rain
The only tune that fiddle could play
Was oh, the dreadful wind and rain
Oh, the dreadful wind and rain
There were two sisters of County Clare
Oh, the wind and the rain
One was dark and the other was fair
Oh the dreadful wind and rain
And they both were in love with the miller’s son
Oh the wind and the rain
But he was fond of the fairest one
Oh the dreadful wind and rain
So she pushed her into the river to drown
Oh the wind and the rain
And watched her as she floated down
Oh, the dreadful wind and rain
She floated down to the Miller’s pond
Oh, the wind and rain
Dead on the water like a golden swan
Oh, the dreadful wind and rain
As she came to rest on the riverside
Oh the wind and the rain
Her bones were washed by the rolling tide
Oh, the dreadful wind and rain
Along the road came a fiddler fair
Oh the wind and rain
And found her bones just a lying’ there
Oh, the dreadful wind and rain
So he made a peg of her long finger bone
Crying oh the wind and rain
So he made a peg of her long finger bone
Crying’ oh the dreadful wind and rain
And he strung his fiddle bow with her long yellow hair
Oh the wind and rain
And he strung his fiddle bow with her long yellow hair
Oh the dreadful wind and rain
He made a fiddle of her breast bone
Cried oh, the wind and rain
He made a fiddle of her breast bone
Oh, the dreadful wind and rain
But the only tune that fiddle could play
Was oh, the wind and rain
The only tune that fiddle could play
Was oh, the dreadful wind and rain
Oh, the dreadful wind and rain
