Subject: Tune Req: Wee Joukydaidles
Wee Joukydaidles is a nineteenth century poem written by James Smith. The first verse is

Wee Joukydaidles,
   Toddlin' oot an' in;
Oh, but she's a cuttie,
   Makin' sic a din!
Aye sae fou o' mischief,
   An' minds nae what I say:
My very heart gangs loup, loup,
   Fifty times a day!

Smith's book of poetry notes that it was set to a tune by R.S. Riddell.

Is anyone able to provide this or any other tune written for the poem?
