Also known as "Pepper's Black"<br> Published in the first edition of The English Dancing Master (1651),<br> with instructions for a rather complex round dance that involved<br> much kissing ("then breake off your hands outwards, then turne kissing<br> every one his owne"). It appeared in subsequent editions of<br> The Dancing Master through the eighth edition of 1690. Cecil Sharp<br> detached the tune from the dance and instead used it for "Pepper's Black".<br> It was also printed in Karpeles & Schofield's A Selection of 100 English<br> Folk Dance Airs (1951) and Sharp's Country Dance Tunes (1909).<br> It was recorded on Country Capers by The New York Renaissance Band.<br>
