Transcription: by Darryl D. Bush
A Dorian mode tune in D. The melody was published by Playford in
The English Dancing Master from the 1st edition (1651) through the
10th edition (1698). Williamson suggests the title might refer to a
nightcap or last drink prior to retiring, otherwise he believes the
composer would have referred to the Scottish head-gear as a bonnet.
It was also printed in Karpeles & Schofield's A Selection of 100
English Folk Dance Airs (1951) and Sharp's Country Dance Tunes (1909).
It was recorded on The English Country Dancing Master by The Telemann
Society and Legacy of the Scottish Harpers by Robin Williamson.
