Bonnie Kate of Aberdeen
At least one song must have been written in praise of a Kate of Aberdeen,
who we presume must have been bonnie.
There may have been more, but we have here a Kate of Aberdeen who was worthy of a poet’s song.
One verse of a rather lengthy pastoral effusion is sufficient.
The silver moon’s enamour’d beams,
Steal softly through the night,
To wanton in the winding streams,
And kiss reflected light.
To courts, begone! heart soothing sleep,
Where you’ve so seldom been,
While I May’s wakeful vigil keep,
With Kate of Aberdeen.
According to Robert Burns, “Kate of Aberdeen”, also called “May Eve”,
was written by James Cunningham, an Irish poet and comedian,
or as Burns said, “a player”.
Born in Dublin in 1729, Cunningham played at the Edinburgh Theatre
and died in Newcastle-upon-Tyne in 1773.
