Dainty Davie by Robert Burns (1793 Melody)

This alternate version of the words to Dainty Davie is attributed to Robert Burns and is included with a melody in this 1800 publication of his works:

It is not clear to me where the melody that Luke Kelly uses, almost the same as the Furey's are using here:

This version of the melody (second tune in the set) is close, but doesn't quite match the 1793 text:

William Leighton Leitch painted 'Warlock Knowe' in 1872, not sure if it is the one Burns is singing about:
