The Maid Freed from the Gallows"The Gallows Tree" redirects here. For a tree used for execution by hanging, see Gallows tree."The Maid Freed from the Gallows" is one of many titles of a centuries- old folk song about a condemned maiden pleading for someone to buy her freedom from the executioner. In the collection of ballads compiled by Francis James Child in the late 1. Child Ballad number 9. A to 9. 5K.[1] In the Roud Folk Song Index it is number 1. The ballad exists in a number of folkloric variants, from many different countries, and has been remade in a variety of formats.

For example, it was recorded in 1. The Gallis Pole" by folk singer Huddie "Lead Belly" Ledbetter, and - the most famous version - in 1. Gallows Pole", an arrangement of the Fred Gerlach version by Englishrock band Led Zeppelin, on the album.

Led Zeppelin III. Synopsis[edit]There are many versions, all of which recount a similar story. Arctic Blast Full Movie. A maiden (a young unmarried woman) or man is about to be hanged (in many variants, for unknown reasons) pleads with the hangman, or judge, to wait for the arrival of someone who may bribe him.

Typically, the first person (or people) to arrive, who may include the condemned person's parent or sibling, has brought nothing and often has come to see them hanged. The last person to arrive, often their true love, has brought the gold, silver, or some other valuable to save them.[1] Although the traditional versions do not resolve the fate of the condemned one way or the other,[citation needed] it may be presumed that the bribe would succeed. Depending on the version, the condemned may curse all those who failed them.

The typical refrain is: "Hangman, hangman, hangman / slack your rope awhile. I think I see my father / ridin' many a mile. Father, did you bring any silver? Or did you come to see me / hangin' from the gallows pole?""No, I didn't bring any silver, / no I didn't bring any gold.

I just come to see you / hangin' from the gallows pole."It has been suggested that the reference to "gold" may not mean actual gold for a bribe, but may instead stand for the symbolic restoration of condemned person's honor, perhaps by proving their innocence, honesty, or fidelity, or the maiden's virginity.[2][3] Such an interpretation would explain why a number of the song's variations have the condemned person asking whether the visitors have brought gold or paid the fee. In at least one version the reply is: "I haven't brought you gold / But I have paid your fee."[4]The song is also known as "The Prickly Bush", a title derived from the oft- used refrain lamenting the maiden's situation by likening it to being caught in a briery bush, which prickles her heart. In versions carrying this theme, the typical refrain may add: O the prickly bush, the prickly bush,It pricked my heart full sore; If ever I get out of the prickly bush,I'll never get in any more. Variants[edit]In some versions, the protagonist is male. This appears to be more prevalent in the United States, where the hanging of women was uncommon.[3]The crime for which the protagonist faces hanging is occasionally mentioned.

The woman may be being held for ransom by pirates, or she has stolen something from her employer. Other instances tell of her having lost a treasured golden ball[5][6] or indicate that she is being hanged for fornication.[citation needed]The most extensive version is not a song at all, but a fairy story titled "The Golden Ball", collected by Joseph Jacobs in More English Fairy Tales. The story focuses on the exploits of the fiancé who must recover a golden ball in order to save his love from the noose.

The incident resembles The Story of the Youth Who Went Forth to Learn What Fear Was.[7] Other fairy tales in the English language, telling the story more fully, always retell some variant on the heroine's being hanged for losing an object of gold.[8]In the Bob Dylan song "Seven Curses", it is not the maiden who is to be hanged but her father, for stealing a stallion. Watch Goal II: Living The Dream Online Full Movie. The woman offers to buy her father's freedom from the judge, who responds: "Gold will never free your father/ the price my dear is you, instead". The maiden pays the judge's terrible price but wakes the next morning to find that her father has been hanged, anyway.[citation needed]The song may have originated in continental Europe. Some 5. 0 versions have been reported in Finland,[9] where it is well known as "Lunastettava neito". It is titled "Den Bortsålda" in Sweden ( "Die Losgekaufte" in German). A Lithuanian version has the maid asking relatives to ransom her with their best animals or belongings (crown, house, crown, ring, sword, etc.).

The maiden curses her relatives who refuse to give up their property and blesses her fiancé, who does ransom her.[1. In a Hungarian version called "Feher Anna", collected by Béla Bartók in his study The Hungarian Folk Song, Anna's brother Lazlo is imprisoned for stealing horses. Anna sleeps with Judge Horvat to free him but is unsuccessful in sparing his life.

She then regales the judge with 1. Cecilia" is one of the best known and more diffused songs in the Italian popular music. With no reference to any curse, it tells a story not very different from those of "Feher Anna" and "Seven Curses". Cecilia's husband has been condemned to be hanged, and she asks the captain how it is possible to spare his life.

The captain promise to save her husband if Cecilia sleeps with him, but in the morning Cecilia sees from the window her man has been hanged.[1. The song is also found in Northern Sami, titled Nieida Kajon sis, which tells a story that strongly resembles the Lithuanian version. The maid asks her relatives (father, mother, brother, sister, and uncle) to ransom her with their best belongings or animals (horse, cow, sword, crown, and ship).[1. Francis James Child found the English version "defective and distorted", in that, in most cases, the narrative rationale had been lost and only the ransoming sequence remained. Numerous European variants explain the reason for the ransom: the heroine has been captured by pirates.[1. Of the texts he prints, one (9.

F) had "degenerated" into a children's game, while others had survived as part of a Northern English cante- fable, The Golden Ball (or Key).[1. Child describes additional examples from the Faroe Islands, Iceland, Russia, and Slovenia, several of which feature a man being ransomed by a woman.[1. The theme of delaying one's execution while awaiting rescue by relatives appears with a similar structure in the 1. Watch The Wing And The Thigh Online Freeform there. Bluebeard" by Charles Perrault[1.

English in 1. 72. Gallows Pole" and the era of recorded music[edit]Lead Belly version[edit]In the Shadow of the Gallows Pole, a Lead Belly album featuring the song as "The Gallis Pole".

Legendary folksinger Huddie "Lead Belly" Ledbetter, who also popularized such songs as "Cotton Fields" and "Midnight Special", first recorded "The Gallis Pole" in the 1. His haunting, shrill tenor delivers the lyrical counterpoint, and his story is punctuated with spoken- word, as he "interrupts his song to discourse on its theme".[1. Judy Collins and Bob Dylan versions[edit]Judy Collins performed the song "Anathea" throughout 1. Newport Folk Festival), credited to Neil Roth and Lydia Wood. It is thematically similar to the Hungarian "Feher Anna" cited above, even to the detail of the name of the brother (Lazlo).

It appeared on her third album, Judy Collins 3, released in early 1. Dayle Stanley's album A Child Of Hollow Times, also released in 1. Greek origin"), under the name "Ana Thea". Bob Dylan recorded a thematically similar "Seven Curses" in 1. Freewheelin' album. The song tells a similar story, but from the point of view of the condemned's daughter. Dylan's song has been recorded by many artists.

The definitive folk version of the song is probably that by Nic Jones recorded as "Prickly Bush", which he performed live and is featured on the Unearthed album. The song has also been played by Spiers & Boden, and recorded by Odetta.
