Hornpipe from Thomas Marsden's Collection Of Original Lancashire Hornpipes, Old and Nero, published
by Henry Playford in 1705, and appears as Ne'er York (~ith the C k D strains reversed) in An
Extraordinary Collection Of Pleasant & Merry Hurnou's, never before Published, Containing Hornpipe's,
Jigg s, North Cuntry Frisk's, Morris's, Bagpipe Hornpipe's, and Round's ..., published by Daniel Wright in
[1715]. It has the typical 4-bar variation form and rhythmic pattern of the Lancashire hornpipe.
