23 Sep 18 - 10:43 AM (#3952291) Subject: Origins: Maid of Cockenzie From: Steve Gardham Whilst things are a bit quiet here's one for the song searchers. Printed in a J. Morren of Edinburgh chapbook c1800 is this ballad in good Child Ballad style, but more than likely an imitation. It's the second song along with 'a version of 'The Blaeberries'. The phraseology is much like that of a Child Ballad and starts with that old chestnut 'It fell about the Martinmas time' The Maid of Cockenzie The setting is Cockenzie near Edinburgh and the man is the second son of an Earl and as Wigton Castle is mentioned, possibly the Earl of Wigton, who has died. Because his older brother has inherited he has to make his way as a soldier fighting in the wars abroad. There are 25 stanzas with no divisions, so 100 lines. Plot: He is at an inn and asks the incumbent bawd to find him a girl to drink with him. The maid is found, complies and when he gets her in his room he locks the door and rapes her. In good 'Willie of Winsbury' style she asks his name and he admits to the above description. He has to go off to war and she finds out she is pregnant. She is beaten by her parents. She travels around the country till she comes to Plymouth, where...surprise, surprise, the earl's son is just arriving in a boat. She has their son with her and reminds him who she is. And in good 19th century tradition they get married (which wouldn't have happened in a genuine Child Ballad). If you want to see the whole thing it's online in the Murray Collection at Ghent University (Glasgow) ref Mu52 e 20, item 4. I'm particularly interested to know if it occurs in oral tradition or any other sources. |

26 Sep 18 - 07:30 PM (#3953057) Subject: RE: Origins: Maid of Cockenzie From: Tattie Bogle Fascinating stuff! By coincidence, we were in Cockenzie yesterday, including visiting the historic Cockenzie House, which was occupied by John Cope and his soldiers in the lead-up to the Battle of Prestonpans in 1745. Cockenzie House There is mention of the Earl of WINTON (not Wigton) in the script in this link: Winton is anther place in East Lothian, not too far away. And also my grandparents on my mother's side were called Morren, so should trace the family tree back a bit further! |

27 Sep 18 - 12:51 PM (#3953195) Subject: ADD: Maid of Cockenzie From: Steve Gardham I'll make a start: MAID OF COCKENZIE It fell about the Martinmas time, when the gentlemen was drinking wine, And a' the talk that they had there, the lassie s dress'd so fine. Out then spake a tall young man, the tallest of the company; Says the bonniest lass that e'er I saw is now come to Cockenzie. I would give a guinea he said, a guinea and a pint of wine; I would give it to any oyster-wife to get the girl with me to dine. Come in, come in ye pretty girl, come in and speak with me, And get a glass of the wine so red, it is new come from Italy. First he took her up the stair, to the drinking of the wine; She stood and told some tales of love, sine turned and locked her in. First he view'd her lovely face, and sine her lovely chin, And ay he kiss'd her rosey lips, but the girl would not incline. My mother's standing on the street, and trembling every limb, And altho' I'm young and beautiful, it is but lust you're in. He has ta'en her by the middle small, and laid her across the bed; The girl sigh'd and oft times said, its woman woe to your trade. Since you have got your will of me, and brought my body to shame; You will be as good, kind Sir, she said, and tell me what's your name. If I tell you my name he said, is what I never did to none, I am an Earls second son. and my father is dead and gone. My oldest brother heirs the land, and there's nothing left for me, But to be a servant to the king, or a ranger on the sea. There's a letter come from Edinburgh town, to Wigton Castle for me, The drums do beat the trumpets do sound who volunteers will be. So farewell my pretty girl this parting causes pain, But I fear that will be bloody news or ere we meet again. The landlady came up the stairs, while the girl in tears did moan; Says woe be to your flattering lips, for this unhappy turn I've done the thing I never thought, by the falsitie of you, My fortune it's broke and I've got the mock it is done I'll never rue. O hold your tongue you foolish girl the man has done no harm to thee. He is a gentleman of noble blood, far above your low degree. O that is my grief the girl said, for you have deluded me; You said he was a farmer's son, Nor his wine I ne'er had pried. By sad mischance she with child did prove, and was sadly tossed about, Her father beat her back and side, and her mother turned her out. She has travell'd east, she has travell'd west, for seven years and a day, Until she came to Plymouth town and there a convoy lay. As she was standing on the shore, with her son into her hand, She spyed a boat of noblemen, coming rowing to the land. Don't you mind Cockenzie, kind sir, where the wine it was so fair, Where the old bawd betray'd a maid, whose beauty was so rare. First he look'd her in the face, her cheeks were pale and wane, O woman said he know ye that place, or are you my lovely one? Yes, I am the maid that you betray'd here is your son in pledge of sorrow, He took her in his arms twa and his tears was not to borrow. Thrice welcome jewel here to me, and this my only son: This day you shall be my wedded bride, for the love that is past and gone. The license he bought and married were and he dress'd her up so fine: But she never forgot the simpring wife, and the drinking of the wine. FINIS.

27 Sep 18 - 02:29 PM (#3953223) Subject: RE: Origins: Maid of Cockenzie From: Mick Pearce (MCP) Guest - falsitie was my own first reading of the word,but I didn't have time to check it. I've just had a look at the image and manipulated the levels and it is consistent with what can be seen. (And I see that's Steve's reading too). The last word of the following line is interesting too. Steve has it transcribed as mock, I read it as moek. The online Scots dictionary gives no entry for moek, but it does rhyme with the first half of the line. To me it definitely looks more like moek in the book and I don't like I've got the mock. MIck |

27 Sep 18 - 03:29 PM (#3953237) Subject: RE: Origins: Maid of Cockenzie From: Steve Gardham Regarding 'Wigton' these pieces are rarely based even loosely on anything real. The maid is not named though the setting near where it was printed. Using the family name of a more remote defunct person would be a typical ploy, giving the plot some possible credence yet far enough distant for the average reader to be able to imagine it based on a real event. Most of the details are generally acceptable as real events of the 18th century or earlier, with the exception of the totally unrealistic conclusion, for a variety of reasons. |

30 Sep 18 - 09:49 AM (#3953795) Subject: RE: Origins: Maid of Cockenzie From: Jack Campin I've only got my phone for the Internet at the moment, and with Mudcat's current instability on that, I can't expect to contribute much to long threads. Will try again tomorrow at the library. A "mock" according to the AUP Scots Dictionary is one of the tiny non-viable eggs hens sometimes lay. Brilliant image in the context. But it's a local usage, mainly West Lothian. The song is a weird mixture of stuff like that, which has to have originated in Scotland, and generic ballad-mongering that could have been written anywhere. |

30 Sep 18 - 10:32 AM (#3953805) Subject: RE: Origins: Maid of Cockenzie From: Steve Gardham Hi Jack I'm happy it was written in Edinburgh, and some of the language and ideas are certainly broadside writer material, but there is also a heavy nod to the muckle ballads in there, so written by somebody with that sort of background c1800. I'm intrigued but have a few ideas as to how and who. Would just like to see a few other ideas before I express my full opinions. There are actually ballads in Child that have similar mixtures, especially among the higher numbers. 293 John of Hazelgreen springs to mind. Amazing co-incidence that this is also set near Edinburgh and possibly the west coast (Hazley Green is near Wigtown, I know Wigton is in Cumbria but Wigtown may have been intended. |
|
30 Sep 18 - 12:29 PM (#3953845) Subject: RE: Origins: Maid of Cockenzie From: Mick Pearce (MCP) I've finally got around to comparing the two transcriptions and made the following changes: 1) Q12 - We both made a slight mistake in the last line. I had Volunteers, Steve had volunteers. The word is actually written as Volunters - initial capital, single e. (I new learning to spell would bite me one day!) 2) Q15 - I now agree with Steve that the word I read as moek should be mock as he had. Looking at other letter es the crossbar is pretty much horizontal, whereas what I read as the crossbar is definitely angled, so I'm now fairly confident that Steve was right and it's just part of an ink mark. 3) Q15 - The last line has ne'er as mine, rather than never as in Steve's. 4) Q17 - I'm fairly sure that at the start of the last line my or is correct, rather than Steve's Nor. While there is a faint ink smudge before or, I think the spacing suggests it is just or. 5) We differed in a few line terminal punctuation marks, but I think I've now corrected them. I've edited these changes into my transcription above (thanks Joe!). I've also added numbers to the quatrains and indented the alternate lines as in the original. (I think Steve included the indents in his, but lost then in the html formatting; I've put them in as html non-breaking spaces ). Note that original runs straight through without any stanza divisions. I've editorially put it into quatrains and added quatrain numbers for ease of discussion. Mick |
|
30 Sep 18 - 02:16 PM (#3953870) Subject: RE: Origins: Maid of Cockenzie From: Steve Gardham Agreed with all of this, Mick. I didn't indent for speed of transcription but I'm happy with all the points you've added, and thanks. Have you any thoughts on the actual ballad itself, Mick? |
|
30 Sep 18 - 08:09 PM (#3953913) Subject: RE: Origins: Maid of Cockenzie From: Lighter One begins to wonder anew what distinguishes a "Child ballad," formally or genetically, from a piece like this. Did Child know of it? Apparently not, but what would he have done with it if he had? As Steve says, the author was clearly familiar with ballad mannerisms, though I hesitate to call this a ballad "imitatation," if only because it was written at a time when better attested ballads were still a staple - perhaps no more than a generation after the writing of "Sir Patrick Spens' and "Edward" (whatever difficulties they might offer to pedants). It's hard to distinguish this song's style from that of, say, "George Collins." The early "Collins" text in Shenstone's Miscellany, for example, reads like even more of an "imitation" than "The Maid of Cockenzie." Now if I'm a chapbook hack who's very familiar with ballad mannerisms, and I write narrative lyrics that display these mannerisms without burlesquing them, have I written a "real" ballad? Obviously it takes notice by Child to be a Child ballad, and some level of popularity and oral tradition to be a "popular ballad." "The Maid of Cockenzie" boasts neither of these, but its relevance to both is pretty clear. It would be interesting to know more about it, but at the moment I have nothing to add on that score. Great find, Steve! |
|
01 Oct 18 - 11:04 AM (#3954014) Subject: RE: Origins: Maid of Cockenzie From: Steve Gardham Thanks, Jon I'm pretty certain Child would not have come across it. It wasn't in any of the mss he mainly accessed, nor is there any evidence of oral tradition, but there are indeed many pieces in Child with far less of the ballad style than presented here. |
|
02 Oct 18 - 07:43 AM (#3954182) Subject: RE: Origins: Maid of Cockenzie From: GUEST Does anybody have a view as to whether The Maid of Cockenzie was written as a poem or a song? Either way, are there any tunes from that era that fit? |
|
02 Oct 18 - 08:28 AM (#3954193) Subject: RE: Origins: Maid of Cockenzie From: Steve Gardham Because the only evidence we currently have is from a songster/chapbook alongside 'Blaeberries' then we can reasonably assume the piece was written to be sung. The fact that it contains commonplaces from well-known ballads also adds weight to this. If you look back up the thread you will see some suggestions. As it is written in the most common ballad metre almost any ballad tune would fit and a search through Bronson or Greig-Duncan would turn up many many possibilities. As it contains some material common to Willie of Winesbury the beautiful tunes associated with that ballad could be tried. |

11 Oct 18 - 01:33 PM (#3956103) Subject: RE: Origins: Maid of Cockenzie From: GUEST,Davie Robertson I'm suspicious of the "Earl of Wigton". Cockenzie and Port Seton were part of the estates of the Earls of Wintoun, whose surname was Seton and whose main residence was at Seton, about a mile and a half from Cockenzie. I would guess that somebody somewhere mistook "Wintoun" for "Wigton". |
|
11 Oct 18 - 02:29 PM (#3956119) Subject: RE: Origins: Maid of Cockenzie From: Steve Gardham Hi, Davie Thanks for that. Is there or was there a Wintoun Castle? Was Seton ever described as a castle? Peter Buchan's version of 'Richie Story' (Child 232 Gf) is titled 'The Earl of Winton's Daughter' and other versions have 'The Earl of Wigton's Daughters' but the ballad here has nothing else in common. |
|
11 Oct 18 - 02:58 PM (#3956124) Subject: RE: Origins: Maid of Cockenzie From: Steve Gardham Okay, Googled Winton Castle and the Setons. The only problem I have with that is the castle is so close to Edinburgh, and if the ballad was written in Edinburgh which seems most likely, surely the writer would know the correct name. However the motive I gave earlier might come in here. Perhaps the author didn't want to upset the local nobility and changed the name of the castle. Of course Mary Seton features in another ballad probably much older. |
|
11 Oct 18 - 05:13 PM (#3956140) Subject: RE: Origins: Maid of Cockenzie From: Jack Campin Winton House has not been described as a castle for a very long time - there wasn't much left of it at the time Colonel Hamilton of Pencaitland refurbed it at the end of the 18th century, and Winton House it has been ever since. (It has two entirely separate wings so that he and his wife (the Mrs Hamilton of Pencaitland that Nathaniel Gow wrote that great tune for) never had to set eyes on each other). The relabelling suggests a bit of editing by someone unfamiliar with the local geography - though then as now, Pencaitland was not that easy to get to from Edinburgh. |

11 Oct 18 - 05:47 PM (#3956150) Subject: RE: Origins: Maid of Cockenzie From: Steve Gardham I think prior to the beginning of the 18th century all sorts of constructions of various sizes were being described as castles, as long as they were fortified in some way. The steles were little more than a single block with several storeys but they were often described as castles in the ballads. |

11 Oct 18 - 06:00 PM (#3956151) Subject: RE: Origins: Maid of Cockenzie From: Tattie Bogle Harrumph! I did actually mention WINTON as being a bit more local, way back on 26th Sept!!

12 Oct 18 - 05:37 AM (#3956236) Subject: RE: Origins: Maid of Cockenzie From: GUEST,Davie Robertson Although their title was "Earl of Wintoun" and they possessed a mansion house at Winton and a town house in the Canongate, Edinburgh, the main residence of the Earls of Wintoun was at Seton. Originating as a fortified house this much-extended dwelling became known as "Seton Palace". It fell into ruins after the forfeiture of the Jacobite Earl of Wintoun in 1715 and was demolished in the 1790s. It was replaced by an Adam mansion often called "Seton Castle" in the 19th and early 20th centuries. Yours in pedantry, D.R. |
