WOOD OF FYVIE, THE. AKA and see “Càill a Chailag Ladhach (Na),” “Keep the Country Bonny Lassie,” “Let's shak her Weall.” Scottish, Reel or Country Dance Tune (cut time). A Mixoldyian. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The melody appears in the Bodleian Manuscript (in the Bodleian Library, Oxford), inscribed "A Collection of the Newest Country Dances Performed in Scotland written at Edinburgh by D.A. Young, W.M. 1740" (p. 44), and in the Drummond Castle Manuscript (in the possession of the Earl of Ancaster at Drummond Castle), 1734, inscribed "A Collection of the best Highland Reels written by David Young, W.M. & Accomptant" (p. 83). It had earlier been published by Daniel Wright in his Aria di Camera (London, 1724) under the title "Let's shak her Weall." In the mid-18th century the tune was published by Robert Bremner as "Keep the Country Bonny Lassie," a title retained by the Gows when they published it toward the end of the century.

Pete Stewart, in his article "Digging the Dird"[1] (2011) argues that early reels such as Young's "Wood of Fyvie" were played slower than today's reels, about 30 bars per minute, or strathspey speed.
