One of the most inspiring,as it is oue of the most ancient of Scottish melodies. It is in one of the oldest scale-forms, the mode of the fifth, (ending on the fifth of the scale) and it has even beenolaimed as the March of Robert Bruce to Bannockburn,1314, but this cannot bo proved. The melody was known in the time of the two uprisings (1715 and 1745) as an old tune, under the name of "Hei Tutti Taiti" words that probably imitat�ed the Fanfare of the Trumpet. The molody has been used as a love-song to the words, "I'm wearing awa Jean" by Lady Nairne. But the chief glory of the song lies in the fiery poem by Burns, which was first pub�lished in May, 1794. |
