This minor-mode jig is often attributed to blind Irish harper Turlough O'Carolan (1670–1738), although Donal O'Sullivan in his definitive work on the bard (Carolan: Life and Times of an Irish Harper, 1958) could find no incontrovertible evidence of its origin. To complicate things, there exist a number of versions of the same melody in 18th-century English and Scottish manuscripts, presented under a variety of names.
