Nice find, Lighter. This site Early American Secular Music and Its European Sources, 1589–1839: An Index (EASMES) suggests that the 1782 source for that text and tune is Twenty Four Country Dances for the Year 1782 published in London by T. Skillern. There is a manuscript copy at the New England Historical Genealogical Society, Boston Mass., and an original under our noses all this time at the Vaughan Williams Memorial Library at Cecil Sharp House! T. Skillern published a series of Twenty Four Country Dances for the Year..., With proper Directions to each Dance for the years 1768 [Printed for T Straight and Skillern], 1787, 1788, 1791, 1796, and 1799 but the edition for 1782 isn't catalogued elsewhere.
