KREBBEL GIANT'S DANCE FROM BRABANT. Flemish. "It seems that many small villages in Flanders (and in other parts of Europe, no doubt) prepared a song or tune, well-known to the inhabitants, that would be communally performed to entice any attacking giant to dance and thereby wear him (or her) self out (John McCutcheon)."
