Misc. Comments
A setting of the traditional Irish Folk Tune - The Maids of the Mourne Shore - collected in Ballosodare, Country Sligo and first set by Herbert Hughes (1882 -1937 ) in 1909.Words adapted/written by WB Yeats in 1889
'Down by the Salley Gardens' (Irish: Gort na Saileán) is a poem by William Butler Yeats published in The Wanderings of Oisin and Other Poems in 1889.[1]
History[edit]
Yeats indicated in a note that it was 'an attempt to reconstruct an old song from three lines imperfectly remembered by an old peasant woman in the village of Ballisodare, Sligo, who often sings them to herself.'[2] The 'old song' may have been the ballad The Rambling Boys of Pleasure[3] which contains the following verse:
- 'Down by yon flowery garden my love and I we first did meet.
- I took her in my arms and to her I gave kisses sweet
- She bade me take life easy just as the leaves fall from the tree.
- But I being young and foolish, with my darling did not agree.'
The similarity to the first verse of the Yeats version is unmistakable and would suggest that this was indeed the song Yeats remembered the old woman singing. The rest of the song, however, is quite different.
Beyond the Veil: Fatima Mernissi: If a reader were to select only one book in order to gain insight into women’s status and prospects in Islamic society, this study should be the one chosen for its clarity, honesty, depth of knowledge and thought-provoking qualities.

In Beyond the Veil, Fatima Mernissi argues that the Islamic view of women as Regarded as a classic book in the United States, Beyond the Veil has never. An expanded and updated edition of this classic study includes a new introduction on Muslim women and fundamentalism, in which Fatima Mernissi argues that. Unassailable position. Yet Fatima Mernissi, in The Veil and the Male Elite, argues that calls to religious validation of misogyny are at odds with the original egalitarian intent of the Prophet.1 Analyzing these hadith and Qu'ranic sura, she notes that they emerged out of a particularly critical. Fatima Mernissi argues that the Islamic view of women as active sexual beings resulted in stricter regulation and control of women's sexuality. Sara, Beyond the Veil. For Sara, the loss of her husband, Peter, was unbearable. You are commenting using your Facebook account. Considering the rage and censorship so often directed at contemporary writers who dare to honestly discuss the problems related to gender dynamics in Muslim communities, it is remarkable what Fatima, as a young Muslim bsyond, published as early as Books by Fatima Mernissi.
Yeats's original title, 'An Old Song Re-Sung', reflected his debt to The Rambling Boys of Pleasure. It first appeared under its present title when it was reprinted in Poems in 1895.[4]
Poem[edit]
- Down by the salley gardens my love and I did meet;
- She passed the salley gardens with little snow-white feet.
- She bid me take love easy, as the leaves grow on the tree;
- But I, being young and foolish, with her would not agree.
- In a field by the river my love and I did stand,
- And on my leaning shoulder she laid her snow-white hand.
- She bid me take life easy, as the grass grows on the weirs;
- But I was young and foolish, and now am full of tears.[5][6]
Location[edit]
It has been suggested that the location of the 'Salley Gardens' was on the banks of the river at Ballysadare near Sligo where the residents cultivated trees to provide roof thatching materials.[7][8] 'Salley' or 'sally' is a form of the Standard English word 'sallow', i.e., a tree of the genus Salix. It is close in sound to the Irish word saileach, meaning willow.
Musical settings[edit]
The verse was subsequently set to music by Herbert Hughes to the traditional airThe Moorlough Shore (also known as 'The Maids of Mourne Shore') in 1909.[1] In the 1920s composer Rebecca Clarke (1886–1979) set the text to her own music.[9] The composer John Ireland (1879–1962) set the words to an original melody in his song cycleSongs Sacred and Profane, written in 1929–31.[10][11] There is also a vocal setting by the poet and composer Ivor Gurney, which was published in 1938.[12]Benjamin Britten published a setting of the poem in 1943.[13] In 1988, the American composer John Corigliano wrote and published his setting with the G. Schirmer Inc. publishing company.[14]
