He became Steeped in folk lore and was fated to grow into a legend himself. He was resting by a brook one day when along came a milkwhite horse on which rode a fair lady. The horse’s mane was plaited, and a little bell was tied to the end of each plait. The Sight of the dainty rider moved the poet to doff his hat, and she told him she was the Elfin queen. The impressionable Tom instantly fell in love with her and as the price of kissing her agreed to endure her company without hreak for seven years. This fate did not frighten Thomas, and the song ends with the Elfin queen riding off through the wood and Thomas going by her side to the tune of the little bells. 8.22 The Orchestra, "Marche Slav" Tchaikovski 8.30 Ania Dorfmann (piano), " Tarantelle, Op. 13 " .
