about

As I Roved Out, also known as The Night Visit, presents to us the age-old tale of a soldier winning over a naive young maid in the medium of dialogue between the two. The song, as it is shown here, is one of many variants of a Scottish ballad entitled Trooper and Maid which Francis James Child collected and recorded in the fifth volume of his anthology The English and Scottish Popular Ballads. While this volume was originally published in 1894, the song would have been a thing of antiquity even then, the story perhaps originating from the time when Roman soldiers would have occupied England, and perhaps briefly straying across Hadrian's wall.
