popular of' them all, "Comln'

credited -by the publishers- of
.Jsong to Robert Burns,' there Is evl
dently no basis for doing. so. The fa
;irorUa Scotch bard,' with his untiring
nergy to popularize, the old music of
Ms nation, took the ( old tunaof "The
Miller's Daughter" and set new words
,to it. which revived this pretty air, at
( least, but the song as We know it to-
j day la of unknown origin, o far as the
rworda are; concerned, and in the com

t words are printed to the tune of !'Com

Uhe old chant and fitted it for the Mus

An elaborate musical program of old
traditions, as well as modern music, Vlll
HICTHRY
fca am ; a
volum4lI,' there is a picture of a lass
and laddie coming thrqugh the Rye,' in
which there la not shown a field of
grain, hut the bank of a stream, with
a stepping stone in view." According to
the line, "She dralglet a' her pettl
coatle," thia interpretation teems plaus
ible. . y
Had Burns written tha original words,
the Rye, an undoubted Ayrshire stream,
might have been added to his Afton,
and Lugar, and Bonnie Doon as destined
to . flow Jn clear favor. But Bums is
merely an adapter In this case one who
gave his preference for a certain forrn
of lyrlo pretty old even in hla day. - Ac
cording to his wont, he dressed the
piece. in some measure, modified It for
the. museum, and embellished It here
and there with freah touches, but. after
all, the song is not his, and nay have
no .ayrsnire rererence whatever.
Even the Interpreters of the words
of the Burns song may have misunder
stood the poet a meaning, wheij he de,
scribes her as "dralglet a her petti-
coatlej for Jenny Would no doubt have
been -drenched had she attempted, early
In the day, a passage through the dewy
rye. There is no doubt that the orlg
inal poet's idea was that "Comln' Thro'
the Rye" was to be a spring song, .with
the conception and Imagery appropriate
to the season and stimulated by the
feelings that are dominant at such pe
riod. In consideration of thia, no doubt
led a noted Bovestlgator into tha sub
ject to write: "Burns , did not write
this song and only edited the verses
of an anonymous lyrio current before
he was born, and I do not see how It
can be decided . Whether he meant a
stream, or a field of rye grain."
It has been stated,' by the way, that
Burns scratched. a couplet of the song
on a pane of glass at Mauchllne in this
form; - :
"Gln a body, kiss a body,
Comln' through the gran;
jNpea a Doay grudge a ooay
What's a body's aln?"
And the ancient first verse, to whloh
Burns Is believed to have added others.
certainly implies that a "field of rye"
is meant
The song is, no doubt, as old as tha
proverbial hills.
Another writer holds that Burn a fur
ther gives evidence of the plcturesque-
r.ess of the rye fields for his poetic
fancy In1 the "Bob-tailed Lass," as evi
denced by the following quotation: 1
"On Wednesday In the afternoon,"
I took a walk ln! the field; '
It was to bring my courage down.
Yet I was forced to yield;
For there I met a bob-tailed lass,
I should have passed her by:
But I kindly took . her by the hands,
