NOT FOR SALE! FREE! *************************************** 2 *************************************** READ THIS! This is a compendium of Songs, Poetry, and other Stuff that I have picked up over 20 or so years membership in the Society for Creative Anachronism, Inc. This collection is NOT FOR SALE! It is FREE! HOWEVER: There are copyrighted songs and poems in here. I have made every effort to credit authors, where known, and to give the appropriate copyright information. If an entry is marked by an author's name, but no copyright information accompanies it, then ASSUME IT IS COPYRIGHTED TO THAT AUTHOR AND DO NOT PERFORM IT FOR PROFIT! My own songs are free for performance, within the SCA, so long as credit is given. If you wish to record them.... contact me first! Please credit your source, on the others. This is NOT a complete selection of my own songs and poems, because some of them were written in the heat of anger, and thus are not suitable for publication! Don't ask! What you see is what you get! This collection may be copied and passed on to SCA and related groups. This file MUST be included. Enjoy! NOTE: Pagination is by area, due to the constraints of electronic media, and not by the whole book. -Ioseph of Locksley the Whyte Bard ******************************************** White Tree Productions - PO Box 35190 - Phoenix AZ - 85069 We are ALWAYS interested in more songs!
