PLAYING AMANG THE RASHES. AKA and see "Boyne Water (1)," "Rashes (The)," "Such a Parcel of Rogues in a Nation," "Wee German Lairdie," "Wha the Deil Hae We Gotten for a King," "When the King came o'er the water," "King William's March," "Cavalcade of the Boyne." This 17th century British Isles tune first appears in William Graham's Lute Book of 1694 and D'Urfey's Pills to Purge Melancholy, vol. 5, 1719, p. 112 (untitled). John Glen, in Early Scottish Melodies (1900, No. 351), gives “Playing Amang the Rashes” as an alternate title for “Boyne Water (1).”
