Jacobite Relics is a two volume collection of songs related to the Jacobite risings, compiled by the Scottish poet and novelist James Hogg on commission from the Highland Society of London in 1817. Most of the songs in the collection are Jacobite, and a minority are Whig. A number of the songs were written or adapted by Robert Burns and scholars speculate as to how many of them were authored or at least substantially altered by Hogg himself.
The first volume was published in 1819 under the title The Jacobite Relics of Scotland; Being the Songs, Airs, and Legends, of the Adherents to the House of Stuart. The second volume was published in 1821. An edited version of the work was published in 2002 (Volume 1) and 2003 (Volume 2) by Edinburgh University Press as Volumes 10 and 12 of the Stirling/South Carolina Research Edition of The Complete Works of James Hogg. The editor was Murray G. H. Pittock.
After being revived by Ewan MacColl, several of the songs included gained new popularity in the 20th century through performances by musicians such as The Corries, Steeleye Span and Eddi Reader, among others – most notably Ye Jacobites (#34), Cam Ye O'er Frae France (#53) and Such a Parcel of Rogues in a Nation (#36).
