additional meaning[edit]

There's another meaning, however, I can't pin it down. Here's a usage example from the Dylan song "Ballad of Hollis Brown":

The rats have got your flour / Bad blood, it got your mare

Anybody know what that means exactly? (Seems like it has something to do with some sort of illness, maybe it denotes a septicæmia?) – ὁ οἶστρος (talk) 19:42, 20 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
