"Willie O' Winsbury" (c. 1775) is a traditional Scottish ballad, known by several variations including "Johnie Scot", "Johnnie Barbour", "Tom the Barber", and "Lord Thomas of Winesberry". Its subject is a king who returns from Spain to find his daughter pregnant by the ballad's hero. The king orders the hero be hanged but, upon viewing the beauty of his fair complexion and blond hair, decides instead to offer the hero his daughter's hand and a lordship in his kingdom. The hero accepts the marriage proposal but refuses the land and title, suggesting they instead be bestowed upon his betrothed.<br /><br />Music performed by Pentangle (1972), image is the oil on canvas painting "Cordelia's Farewell" (1898) by Edwin Austin Abbey.<br /><br />U.S. Fair Use: for educational and research purposes only<br />Follow vrilpilled:<br />Twitter - <a href="https://twitter.com/vrilpilled" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://twitter.com/vrilpilled</a><br />Gab - <a href="https://gab.com/vrilpilled" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://gab.com/vrilpilled</a><br />Telegram - <a href="https://t.me/vrilpilled" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://t.me/vrilpilled</a><br />BitChute - <a href="https://www.bitchute.com/channel/vrilpilled/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://www.bitchute.com/channel/vrilpilled/</a><br />Odysee - <a href="https://odysee.com/@vrilpilled" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://odysee.com/@vrilpilled</a>:a<br /><br />DASH: XmB3LYPoQVfbdg77pSKU8CHS2NFkUVwZoi<br />XMR: 49QtgnScKy95LPx5EN2xAnHFQzXFVNt3RJfPN3bPimxM5kmSQCDLiKHciZ9wmHdm7AAxr3HKtkgo41NVAPSSoMgx48iDAXq<br />ZEC: t1MVGWQB5c6k7eSxG9KKcSaierw1RdHUmDj<br />ZEN: znbhdEsBa9wZqppYRxqRgNb6PECjCcCSfKx
