KATE DALRYMPLE. AKA and see "Highland Laddie (4)," "New Highland Laddie (1)," "Jinglin' Johnnie." Scottish; March, Reel or Scottish Measure (cut or 2/4 time). A Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB. The melody was first published in 1750 under the title "New Highland Laddie (1)." James Hunter (1979) explains that Kate Dalrymple was a noted beauty, and the subject of a Thomas Gainsborough (1727–1788) portrait; however no such portrait is extent, and Hunter may have been referring to another Dalrymple, the courtesan Mrs. Grace Dalrymple Elliott [1] (1754–1823), whom Gainsborogh painted in 1778. The reel is a popular ceilidh tune, and has been used by the BBC as the theme music for the BBC Radio Scotland dance music program "Take the Floor."
William Watt (1792−1859) wrote a poem (and song [2]) about a spinster named Kate Dalrymple, with visage "gruesome and grim", that begins:
In a wee cot house far across the muir
Where pease-weeps, plovers, an’ waups cry dreary,
There liv’d an’ auld maid for mony lang years,
Wha ne’er a woo-er did e’er ca’, dearie.
A lanely lass was Kate Dalrymple,
A thrifty quean was Kate Dalrymple;
Nae music, exceptin’ the clear burnie’s wimple,
Was heard round the dwellin’ o’ Kate Dalrymple.
