Apparently Maggie isn’t the only one who’s been stealing this material:

Stosh…
I recall taking a course in Medieval literature once and we were reading a few anonymous poems from the period and I swear one of them had the exact same rhythm and rhyme scheme of Bob Dylan’s “A Hard Rain’s A Gonna Fall”. Most of the lyrics were different but he had definitely quoted a stanza… Where are you now my blue-eyed son?” and that lyric.
Floyd,
You’ll love this then… Medieval rap.

example:
Her lothely lere
Is nothynge clere,
But ugly of chere,
Droupy and drowsy,
Scurvy and lowsy;
Her face all bowsy,
Comely crynkled,
Woundersly wrynkled,
Lyke a rost pygges eare,
Brystled wyth here.
Also one of my favorites, from a truly inspired mind.

GREAT STUFF!
Thanks for posting that. Seriously!
nothing new is under the Sun. I just made that up.
I bet the Python boys just hated that.
The two best things to come out of England in the last 50 years, together in the same video. Brilliant!
