Two Cumberland Ballads

John Stagg

Two Cumberland Ballads, written by John Stagg, features two narrative ballads rooted in local folklore. 'The Hermit of Rockcliffe' tells the story of a fugitive who learns a cautionary tale from a hermit, while 'The Rose of Corby' follows a young maid's elopement on the day of her betrothal to a lord, leading to unexpected consequences. These ballads highlight Stagg's unique contribution to regional poetry and storytelling.
