    seen at its best, youths and maidens dancing jigs, reels, hornpipes, and quadrilles to their hearts content. They sang folklore songs which were the true outpourings of their hearts, the music of which has such a powerful influence on the soul of every such man and woman for it brings all that is high and noble all that is holy and good in them.
    "Oh who can tell what a holy spell
    Is in the strains of our native land".
