A version of RT's setting of the Norewegian folk song, Margit Hjuxe, for
lute (here in Renaissance tuning).

It's a troll song - 'troll' not as "Dowland couldn't write counterpoint
and he got his divisions from Band-In-A Box. Discuss." but 'troll' as
supernatural creature. The troll in this song, a mountain king with a
long white beard,  drags off poor old Margit who was on her way to
church one day.


Many verses -  and 14 years later, and the birth of several children,
old beardie lets her return home. But quickly snatches her back again.
