 +The dance takes its title from the first line of the third
 +verse of a lyric collected by David Herd in the 1760
 +
 +**LVII Green Sleeves.**\\
 +Green sleeves and pudden-pyes, come Tell me where my true love lyes\\
 +Green sleeves and yellow lace, Maids, maids, come, marry apace!
 +
 +
 +**GREEN SLEEVES AND YELLOW LACE**\\
 +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,”
