A Scottish chieftain is in love with the daughter Lord Ullin`s. The Scots have close knit clans and are very proud of their clans. This often resulted in feuds and fights.

Lord Ullin doesn't approve of his daughter's choice and threatens to kill the chief's son.

The 2 lovers escape and came to a stormy lake called loch.

Its is a stormy night and going into the lake in this weather could be quite dangerous. The chieftains son offers the boatman a silver pound to ferry them accross. The boatman is quite surprised at this request and would like to know who they are .

The lover tells him that they have been running from 3 days.He is sure that is caught ,will be killed. His blood will stain the heather.

The brave boatsman offers to take them accross. He says that he doesn't do so for the silver pounds but for the winsome lady.

The dark clouds gathered. The storm grew more fierce. The lady pleaded with the men to hurry.

She would rather venture into the stormy water than meet the wrath of the father. I will meet the raging of the skies. But not an angry father.
