The Haggis of Dunbar (Malcolm notes:The DT file contains four variations of this little
piece, from Scotland and Northern England. No mention is made of a tune, but there is a
reel of the same name which appeared in The Athole Collection (James Stewart
Robertson, 1884). Obviously, I don't know if the tune was ever associated with any of
the texts -or with any other- but the coincidence of a rather unusual name does suggest it.
Midi made from the notation in that book; the texts fit the "A" part of the music well
enough, and it has been necessary only to remove one pickup note from the end of the
fourth bar, doubling the duration of the previous note.) | Popup Midi Player |

How Many Miles to Babylon? ( the set given in Alfred Moffat's Fifty Traditional Scottish Nursery

embedded the text as given by Moffat rather than modify the phrasing to accommodate the more
Scottified text in the DT. Moffat has:
How many miles to Babylon?
Three score and ten, Sir.
Will we be there by candle-light?
Yes, and back again, Sir!
Ope' your gates and let us through,
Not with-out a beck and boo!
There's a beck and there's a boo,
Ope' your gates and let us through.) | Popup Midi Player |
