The Ballad of Chevy Chase
There are two extant English ballads known as "The Ballad of Chevy Chase", both of which narrate the same story. As ballads existed within oral tradition before being written down, other versions of this once popular song also may have existed. Moreover, many ballads continued to use the ''Chevy Chase'' tune without necessarily referring to the "The Ballad of Chevy Chase."
==Synopsis==
The ballads tell the story of a large hunting party upon a parcel of hunting land (or ''chase'') in the Cheviot Hills, hence the term, ''Chevy Chase''. The hunt is led by Percy, the English Earl of Northumberland. The Scottish Earl of Douglas had forbidden this hunt and interpreted it as an invasion of Scotland. In response he attacked, causing a bloody battle after which only 110 people survived. Both ballads were collected in Thomas Percy's ''Reliques'' and the first of the ballads in Francis James Child's ''Child Ballads''.
