“Folk Music & the Widening Gyre. The Dominion of the Sword was written as a Royalist satire on the rule of Parliamentarians during the English Civil War. The 17th Century was a time of strong sectarian religious beliefs. Listen to the lyrics, they have relavance today for those who seek to impose their beliefs by violent means. #Folk #EnglishCivilWar #ISIL #Islamists #TheSword”
