Subject: RE: The False Fly
Sandy, I spent all my precious little time in Edinburgh making a contents listing of the Skene MS and G. F. Graham's partial transcript of the lost Straloch Lute MS. I got the bawdy titles than Dauney didn't mention in 'Ancient Scottish Melodies'.

Thanks John,
Let try for another; the earlier title of "The Flower(s) of Edinburgh" was "My loves bonny when she smiles on me". I've never seen a song for that ("Flowers" excepted), either. "The False Knight Upon the Road" obviously has nothing in common with that title. Anyone have one?
