Fantastic! Thanks, Mimosa. Imagine my looking for a song that was written before 1835! And Mom sang it to me somewhere between 1926 and 1934. I wonder where she heard it? Even her oldest sister wasn't alive when James Hogg was. And her mother came to the United States in the late 1800's, and driven as most immigrants were to earning bread, I doubt she had time to learn new songs in a new language. Probably Mom learned it in school where there used to be "singig" once a week from a big old book called "Assembly Songs." Now I see your reference to the Oxford Book of English Verse. It was on my poetry bookshelf, with browning pages, picked up by someone for $1 as a second hand book, originally dedicated to "Chris - Xmas 1937." And there it is! Take a look at the lengthy ballad "Kilmeny" which follows it, also by Hogg. I go on too long. Prolix as usual.
