Subject: RE: BUCK'S ELEGY -- A corrupt text?
The tune, SITM #4695, is not given in SITM, but is noted to be the same as SITM #4584. SITM #4806, that in Crosby's Irish Musical Repository is also not given in SITM, but is also indicated to be the same as SITM #4584. Note that SITM deletes slurs, except when they extend the time of a single note, so their tunes aren't always exactly as originally published (or given in some MS).
