Author Unknown., A LTHOUGHi the pntty Scotch aong iW Undoubtedly the most popular of' them all, "Comln' Thro'" the Rye, Is invariably 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 fplete works of Bnrns, compiled and i edited by Allan Cunningham, & set of t words are printed to the tune of !'Com 1 ing Through the Rye." and Mr. Cun-, ;nlngham add8: "The ppet..in this song,' . removed some-or thevcoarse chaff from Uhe old chant and fitted it for the Mus ical Museum, where -It" was first print . ed." - v Tha Burns version la as follows: ."Coming throngh the 'rye, poor body, a Coming through the rye, She dralglet a' her pettlcoatle. coming tnrougn the rj'e.

Re. tfpntly ' a. Scotchman, writing to a Kew .York paper, affirmed that Burns meant 'h at ream named the Rye, and not a field -f rye grain, and that Jprniy rme '.through on stepping atones of tha Ryo- lurn.

It Is in the nature of an experi ment here,, however, and . its continua tion will depend upon what apprecia tion is snown on tne part of the publlo. - t- w w 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, : Ana ner mrougn mo rye. mere is tui anotner familiar ar rangement of, these words, -beginning "If a body meat a 4ody, ' Going to the fair; .--.If a -body Mas. .bodM'-: Need a body care." ; In the British Museum there is, copy of this song, which Is claimed as an brlglnal, and which' bears the "date or publication.
