Re: help placing a quotation?

 

the specific line I quoted is in Danny boy?
I ask because, when researching the song, I came across the Harry belafonte recording referenced where he speaks these lines. Wikipedia did not indicate they were apart of the song, note the actual lyrics provided earlier in that article.

Re: help placing a quotation?

 

All I could find was this about the song Danny Boy.

1957 Harry Belafonte sang the song from the album "An Evening with Harry
Belafonte", where he began the song with a spoken recitative, before singing
the 2 verses. He repeated the second half of the first verse the second time
around. The Recitative goes: "The Time, a time of strife. The Place, the
place is Ireland. And as Irish legend had it, as the last rose of Summer
fell, and all the young men of Ireland were to gather to strike a blow For
Ireland's Freedom and Ireland's Liberty, There were songs for those who
stayed at home, and songs for those who went away, and all of Ireland was
sad".

Hi amazing fountains of wisdom.
Anyone know the source of the below?

"The Time, a time of strife. The Place, the place is Ireland.
And as Irish legend had it, as the last rose of Summer fell, and all
the young men of Ireland were to gather to strike a blow For Ireland's
Freedom and Ireland's Liberty, There were songs for those who stayed at
home, and songs for those who went away, and all of Ireland was sad".

I know where I located it, but am wondering if there is more?
Thanks much,
Kare

Re: help placing a quotation?

 

In the wiki article

there is a reference to a Harry Belafonte recording which included this recitative.
"The Time, a time of strife. The Place, the place is Ireland.
And as Irish legend had it, as the last rose of Summer
fell, and all the young men of Ireland were to gather to strike a
blow For Ireland's Freedom and Ireland's Liberty, There were
songs for those who stayed at home, and songs for those who went
away, and all of Ireland was sad".

Not a Kindle girl, but will hunt the actual book as it seems like a terrific read regardless!

i have a treasured Irish friend whose birthday is on...Saint Patrick's day, or near about.
He is having a party featuring stories and song, and saucem and tea.
anyway, I seek a funny short Irish Heroes or legend story I can tell, the event is for adults if that resonates.
Given he specifically included honoring Irish heroes in the invitation, leaning that way might be fun.
any ideas, or good story collections I can consult?
A poem will work too so long as it is funny.

Ot: of the less fun kind, legal advice on software?

 

Hi folks,
asking given the amazing and various professionals from around the world here.
Anyone know how legal jurisdiction works when a software program is used world wide?
I imagine this may or may not be shared in terms, but I am wondering if I must seek a lawyer in the state where the software company is located, or, if they have a office near me, if I can work from here?
Company is based in California, in case we have any legal minds from the state.
Thanks,
Kare

Who says he didn't? We don't get an answer either way.

Re: Just asking

 

The unicorn they found when they were with Hagrid wasn't the first one attacked, Hagrid told them that something had been killing unicorns, no mention of how many though.

Re: Just asking

 

The answer is Magic. You can apply reality to the Magical World. You're thinking way too much and taking that way too seriously. You might as well ask how vampire can drain a human of all of its blood.

My view in the magical context would be that he has to replace all of the blood within his own body possibly all the fluid within his own body with Unicorn Blood in order to keep it going. So it's not just what he can hold in his stomach and intestines but the entire body itself so all of the all of your blood all of your other viscous fluids that are in your body and in your cells have to be replaced by the Unicorn Blood.

Re: Just asking

 

I'm under the impression he was interrupted... maybe he was drinking first, & then getting the rest?
