The seemingly anglicised version at the Bodl was printed by Pearson of Manchester not long after Harrigan's original came out. It was also printed in Glasgow by the Poet's Box in 1877 on which it states the air as 'The Colleen Rhu'. Sanderson of Edinburgh also printed it but there's no way of dating this one as the Sandersons were printing for about a century well into the 1930s and didn't date their sheets.
