BOS LIN CASTLE.
265
James Oswald, who made a volume entitled "A Collection of Scots Tunes/' and gave among them many of his own, was long supposed to have composed this one, although in the collection it lacked the asterisk by which he designated his own. It has since been discovered in a book which was old in Oswald's day, under the title " The House of Glams." Roslin Castle stands on the banks of the river Esk, a few miles from Edinburgh.
