Hi,

Fragment from James Madison Carpenter Collection, JMC/1/5/1/T, p. 08706. Has a variation of Mrs. Brown's first refrain.

Binorie (Two Sisters)- sung by Mrs. B.D. Cameron of probably Aberdeenshire collected by Alexander Keith before 1931.

    There was two sisters lived in a town
       Edinborough, Edinborough
There came a knight to be there wooer
They're the grey millert's lassie o Binorie, O.
