John (possibly Henry) Playford published the melody in 1687 in the fifth edition of Apollo's Banquet (p. 58) under the title "The Duke of
Albany's Tune," and John Glen[1] says it is probably contained in the Blaikie's MS. of 1692, where it goes under the name of "My Lord Aboyn's Ayre". The melody was used for the song "Where winding Forth adorns the vale", printed in James Johnson's Scots Musical Museum, vol. II (Edinburgh, 1788, Song 142, p. 149), with words by Scots poet Robert Ferguson[2] (1750-1774. They begin:
Where winding Forth adorns the vale,
Fond Strephon once a shepherd gay,
Did to the rocks his lot bewail,
'And thus addresst his plaintive lay.
'O Julia, more than lilly fair,
More blooming than the op'ning rose,
How can thy breast relentless wear.
A heart more cold than winter's snows.
