Hunting Song

 I had not heard this one before.  Looking it up, it is not a traditional piece, it is written by them. The lady with the magic horn is likely to be Morgan Le Fey. The narrative isn't quite clear to me, and seems to be a pastiche of medieval-sounding legends about false maidens.

The magic drinking horn that reveals false lovers is from the Lai du Cor, a 12th century Anglo-Norman poem.

That seems more precise. Le Fey is rather a catch-all for such things.
