29.              Zorab's song

30.              Song of the little red warboat.

31.              I will mourn my king

33.              Steel shod dance

34.              The old ways (there's another name but I don't have it right now).  Chorus went something to the effect of "But deep in the wood the old temples remain to Odin and Freya, and Thor".

*Soldier's Daughter*
Music and words by Cassandra Peverell

I was raised in Lincoln town
My father's only child
For war he left me on my own,
With plough and domicile.
Two years hence, his death was knelled
And a lord's right to his land upheld.
And I was cast aside.

Horse and sword and armor strong
Are all that's left to me,
But father taught me my life long,
So well I know all three.
To Dover I will find my way,
And bind my breasts for soldier's pay,
And fear shall not me find.

Chorus:
     For though I am a young girl,
     A soldier's daughter,
     I'll race across the plains
     On the backs of armored steeds.
     My father's sword I'll hold high
     And shed the blood of warlike men
     No quarter to them given.
