AB (Stanford/Petrie): AABB (Joyce). Joyce remarks his is the "Connaught version: different from Petrie's Munster version (Ancient Music of Ireland)". A Galway (Connaught) version was collected by biography:Henry Hudson (1798-1887) from the playing of Galway piper Paddy Conneely, printed in The Dublin Magazine (1843). Conneely translated the Irish Gaelic title as "The hen and cock that strayed away together."
