BORRY ROYALL. Scottish. The tune appears in the Panmure MS #9454, Seventy Seven Dances, Songs and Scots Airs for Violin, c. 1675. Robin Williamson says 'borry' is probably a spelling of burgh, a royal town, but it well might be a variant of the dance form 'bourree'.

Recorded sources: Flying Fish, Robin Williamson - "Legacy of the Scottish Harpers, vol. 2."
