The traditional ballads do not call her the "Queen of Elphame" as such (except as so altered in Robert Graves's edition). In ballad version A of "Thomas the Rhymer" names as "Queen of Elfland" the being who spirits Thomas away, and the two queens may be equivalent according to common belief. For instance, Andro Man's accusers charged that he had learned to his art of healing from his "Quene of Elphen" and plied his trade in return for "meit or deit", just like Thomas the Rhymer. They also extracted from him the affirmation that he has known dead men like Thomas the Rhymer and the king who died in Flowdoun (James IV) who were in the Queen's company.
