Bruce O.	Lyr Req: The Humour Is on Me Now (26)	RE: Lyr Req: I will and I must get married	16 Jan 00
There's another 17th century tune, this time called "The Fit's come over me now", also in 9/8 time, in MS Panmure 7 = NLS MS 9454, a violin score of about 1675, but I don't have a copy. I suspect the "The Maulster's Daughter of Marlborough" was modeled on "The fits come on now". It went through a chapbook version called "The Longing Maid" before it became the "Whistle, Daughter, Whistle" in DT.
