re the Scottish Gaelic verses, collected from Malcolm MacMillan of Benbecula, Western Isles in 1891, see https://www.electricscotland.com/books/pdf/carminagadelicah02carm.pdf vol 2 of A. Carmichael, "Carmina Gadelica" pp. 162 following. I've also copied and pasted them into a Mudcat discussion thread re The Cherry Tree Carol. It would be interesting to see how these verses compare with Irish verses.
