A trad song from Steeleye Span about a young wife losing her beloved during the Battle of Trafalgar. Folk music is full of broken-hearted women with beaux at sea. It was just a way of life in pretty much any seafaring culture for a few centuries.

“This quiet,gentle version of 'Angels Laid Him Away' by Lucinda Williams would probably meet with approval from Mississippi John Hurt. "Avalon Blues: A Tribute to the Music of Mississippi John Hurt" was released in 2001, and was a tribute to the gentle man of Delta Blues. Various artists joined in the album to make it a special edition: Chirs Smither, Bruce Cockburn, Lucinda Williams, Alvin Youngblood Hart, Steve & Justin Earle, Ben Harper, Gillian Welch, John Hiatt, and Taj Mahal among others. ENJOY!”

I'm confused. Is this thread about personal loss for the poster, or from the point of view of the singer?
