'''IN JANUARY LAST'''. English, Scottish; Air (4/4 time). E Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. The song appears in John Playford's '''Choice Ayres''' (ii. 46, 1679), '''Wit and Drollery''' (1682), '''Pills to Purge Melancholy''' (vol. i, all editions), and '''Apollo's Banquet''' (No. 55, 1687), in which latter volume it appears as an air simply called "A Scotch Tune." It also appears in Thomas D'Urfey's play '''The Fond Husband, or The Plotting Sisters''' (1676). The tune was also the vehicle for other songs such as "The Scotch Wedding; or, A short and pretty way of wooing" and "The New-married Scotch couple; or, The Loving Lasse's Lamentation," and "Northern Nanny; or, The Loving Lasse's Lamentation."

Thomson later printed it in '''Orpheus Caledonious''' (ii 42, 1733) but under the title "The Glancing of her Apron" (from another line in the song).
