I thought everyone would know "Whistle, Daughter Whistle". I am not home at the moment, so can't look up a copy. It's a descendent of "The Maulster's Daughter of Marlborough" listed in the broadside ballad index on my website.
By my recollection Emily Lyle gave a later broadside copy at the end of 'Andrew Crawfurd's Collection of Ballads', I, as well as the Scots traditional text Crawfurd collected, given earlier in that work.
