148586 : Oswald (arr.) : The Souters of Selkirk (with variations) : sheet music
Catalogued as Instrumental (Morris) (Temple of Apollo)

Oswald's arrangement of the song tune, for German (transverse) flute or violin, appeared in his second collection of Curious Scots Tunes, London c.1743. Oswald's notation in 3/4 has been halved and barred in 9/8, the better to highlight the shape of the tune.
