From Ramsay’s _Tea Table Miscellany_, a curiously composite gathering of
verses. There is a verse, obviously a variant, in a sixteenth century
song, cited by Leyden. St. Anthon’s Well is on a hill slope of Arthur’s
Seat, near Holyrood. Here Jeanie Deans trysted with her sister’s
seducer, in _The Heart of Midlothian_. The Cairn of Nichol Mushat, the
wife-murderer, is not far off. The ruins of Anthony’s Chapel are still
extant.
