+Several versions of a dance to "Green Sleeves" were
+published in this period. "Green Sleeves and Pudding
+Pies" appears in DM I: 1686-1716. Walsh borrowed it
+for his 1718 publication, so John Young replaced the
+dance figures in his 1721 edition and changed the title. It
+is this latter dance, with some modifications, that the
+Kennedys chose to reconstruct. Feuillet published a much
+simpler dance in his Recuéil of 1706, calling it "Les
+Manches Vertes," and Pat Shaw reconstructed this dance
+in the 1960's. The tune "Green Sleeves" had many
+names in the eighteenth century, most prominent among
+them being "The Blacksmith” Of Which nobody can
+deny,”
