Roud 21761. The index earliest entry is for 1848 Davidson's Universal Melodist 1 and doesn't list Whitelaw's Book Of Scottish Song, though as it appears in 1843 and 1856 editions ("This song attributed to BURNS, but without much certainty"!).
Lyric Gems lists it just under the first line as title: Here Around The Ingle Bleezing, without the 3rd verse.
As Harry says it appears the Willie didn't write the third verse.
