COLD FROSTY MORNING [2], A. AKA and see "I Am Asleep and Don't Waken Me (2)," "Past One O'Clock." Scottish, Slow Air or Waltz (3/4 time). F Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB. The air first appears in John Playford’s Apollo’s Banquet, 5th edition (London, 1687), under the title “At past Twelve a Clock, and a fine Summer’s Morning” and in the opera Flora (London, 1737) by John Hippisley, as “At Past One a Clock, and a Cold Frosty Morning.” Scots versions can be found in James Oswald's Caledonian Pocket Companion, vol. 4 (1760, p. 16) and Francis Peacock's Fifty Scotch Airs (Aberdeen, 1762). An American musician, Andrew Wilson, included it in his 1782 commonplace book entitled "Brose and Butter" [Library of Congress]. See notes for "Annotation:I Am Asleep and Don't Waken Me (2)" and "Annotation:Past One O'Clock" for more.
