In May 1968 the Arts Council invited Seamus Heaney, Michael Longley and David Hammond to visit a number of towns in Northern Ireland with a programme which, genuflecting to tradition, toured under the title 'Room to Rhyme'. To find a common denominator the two poets and the ballad collector sought a number of themes commonly treated by each in song and verse. Since the anthology and the comparisons to be made within each theme (symbolized on the front cover by Ralph Dobson) retain interest and vitality apart from the tour, the Council decided to publish this booklet in the hope that it will give greater currency to the vision and verse of two contemporary Irish writers and increase familiarity with the oral tradition to which the bulk of the ballads belong" (preface).
