COMING THROUGH THE RYE (Ag Teacht tríd an Seagal). AKA and see "Gin a Body Meet a Body," "The Miller's Daughter [1]," "Rye Waltz." Scottish, Shetland; Country Dance Tune (2/4 or 4/4 time) or Strathspey. Irish, Slide. D Major (Kerr/3rd, Sweet): A Major (Kerr/4th). Standard tuning (fiddle). One part (Sweet): AB (Breathnach): AABB (Kerr/4th). The title of the song comes from lyrics by Robert Burns set to the tune originally composed by Robert Bremner called "The Miller's Daughter." It was published in 1797 in '''The Scots Musical Museum''' (vol. 5), though it had earlier appeared in 1796 under the title "If a Body Meet a Body," the arrangement credited to J. Sanderson with words by Mr. Cross. Several sources have noted the similarity between this tune and "Auld Lang Syne," and Fuld (1966) believes they have similar melodic antecedents. The original song was a particularly bawdy ditty collected by Burns (who wrote not a few bawdy lyrics himself) and published posthumously around 1800 in '''The Merry Muses of Caledonia'''. Fuld believes that Cross's 1796 words were simply a prurient altering of the original song for public consumption. The air has been adapted to dancing in a number of rhythms and genres. Jackie Small, editor of '''CRÉ V''' (1999), says in his note with the tune: "It is interesting how little reluctance traditional musicians have to use bits of 'pop music', of whatever age, for their own purposes."  In County Kerry it is played as a slide (12/8 time), and was noted by Kerry fiddle teacher Pádraig O'Keeffe in his idiosyncratic manuscript notation. As a novelty number called "The Rye Waltz," it was popular at dances in the southwest United States around 1900 (Shumway, 1990). The tune was recorded from Ozark Mountain fiddlers by folklorist/musicologist Vance Randolph in the early 1940's for the Library of Congress. Cooke prints the following words to the tune, collected in the Shetland Islands:
