Summary

In this song the bard tells that three things come uninvited: fear, jealousy and love.

Item Notes

1 verse. The song is said to have been composed by the daughter of the Laird of Reelig. There are two places by this name, one in Inverness and one in Wester Ross. The location, therefore, cannot be confirmed.
