 FIVE LEAVED/LEAF CLOVER [2], THE (Seamrog Na Cuig Duille). AKA and see "Bridie Morley's," "Old Bush (2) (The)," "Captain Rock," "Long Hills of Mourne (The)," "Sceach (An)." Irish, Reel. A Minor (O'Neill/1915): A Dorian (O/Neill/1001): A Minor/Mixolydian (Phillips): A Major (O'Neill/1850). Standard tuning (fiddle). AB (O'Neill): AABB (Phillips). The tonality is blurred to a great extent between minor and major versions (often A mixolydian/d mixolydian), as the 'C' note can be either sharped or natural.
