BLYTH WAS SHE.
In the Museum there are two songs to which this melody has been adapted. The first is by Burns, and the other, called " Andro and his cutty Gun," is published by Allan Eamsay in the fourth volume of the Tea-Table Miscellany, 1740. We do not find the tune, however, before its appearance 120 EAELY SCOTTISH MELODIES.
in Oswald's Caledonian Pocket Companion, book vi., published about 1753.
The air, we think, was originally a bagpipe tune ; it is quite suited for, and is played on, th...at instrument. It is constructed in the minor mode, and is pentatonic, wanting the third and sixth of the scale. Our opinion is that the tune may be considerably older than 1753.
181. JOHNY FAA, OE THE GIPSIE LADDIE.
This air is better known at the present time as " Waes me for Prince Charlie." It is very ancient, a version of the tune being contained in the Skene MSS., under the title of "Ladie Cassilles Lilt." For the first printed copy of the melody, we are indebted to a foreigner ; it is included in Francis Barsanti's " Collection of Old Scots Tunes," 1742, identical with its present form.
