Notes

I may have it wrong as "Rood" not "Reed", but that's what it looks like to me.Editorially not a disaster, and a well enough known tune, so I let it stand for you to work on the interesting bits toward the end. Aka.Old Lancashire Hp..Appears as"Cheshire Round a jig divided 12 ways" in Apollo's Banquet,1693..CGP
