Elizabeth Wilson Grierson was the author of collections, included the Scottish legends, folk-tales and ballads. While many of the themes are similar to other European folk-tales, the strange and fantastical legends emphasize specificity of the Scottish history. “Canonbie Dick and Thomas Of Ercildoune” is the legend about a horse-dealer lived in the South of Scotland, near the Border, who was known as Canonbie Dick. He was fearless and the people who knew him used to say that if Canonbie Dick dare not attempt a thing, no one else need be asked to do it. But once he met one strange man, who offered him a good deal, and Canonbie Dick agreed, but he didn’t know, that this meeting will require all of his bravery later… Discover the Scottish legend filled with mystique and secrets!
