| The Haggis of Dunbar (Malcolm notes:The DT file contains four variations of this little piece, from Scotland and Northern England. No mention is made of a tune, but there is a reel of the same name which appeared in The Athole Collection (James Stewart Robertson, 1884). Obviously, I don't know if the tune was ever associated with any of the texts -or with any other- but the coincidence of a rather unusual name does suggest it. Midi made from the notation in that book; the texts fit the "A" part of the music well enough, and it has been necessary only to remove one pickup note from the end of the fourth bar, doubling the duration of the previous note.) | DT | |

| Hoo Mony Miles is it to Glasca-Lea? (A Scottish form of How Many Miles to Babylon?. The DT file has two texts, both from sources that did not print the tunes, but identifies the set given in Alfred Moffat's Fifty Traditional Scottish Nursery Rhymes (1933) as a close variant. Midi made from notation in that book, then, where it is called How Many Miles to Babylon? ) | DT | |

| How Many Miles to Babylon? ( the set given in Alfred Moffat's Fifty Traditional Scottish Nursery Rhymes (1933) embedded the text as given by Moffat rather than modify the phrasing to accommodate the more Scottified text in the DT. Moffat has: How many miles to Babylon? Three score and ten, Sir. Will we be there by candle-light? Yes, and back again, Sir! Ope' your gates and let us through, Not with-out a beck and boo! There's a beck and there's a boo, Ope' your gates and let us through.) | DT | |

| As I went by the Luckenbooths (This is quoted from Alfred Moffat's Fifty Traditional Scottish Nursery Rhymes (1933), where it is called The Fair Lady. The DT file digests most of Moffat's notes on the song, though it would be worth adding the following: "The Luckenbooths were picturesque buildings in the High Street [of Edinburgh], close to St. Giles' Church. They stood there from about 1470 to 1817 when they were cleared away." Midi made from Moffat's notation.) | DT | |
