Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Folk-Songs of Eastern Europe
Therefore, in dealing With many of the songs, I have asked the friends who have written verses for me to be guided solely by the inspiration of the melodies. There are a few exceptions to this, such as the Greek song: 0 let me wander; and the Finnish song, Sweetheart, in which the general meaning of the words found with the melodies has been followed because the thought and the feeling of them seemed suitable to the music.
