"In the Carey MS. this was marked 'Carolan'. I have come across a Gaelic Jacobite song to this air, composed during the Cromwellian rule, lamenting the banishment of Charles II., beginning:--Ce fada mise a'gluasacht ni-fhuil suairceas air m'intinn: 'Though long I am wandering, there is no comfort for my mind'" (Joyce).  Source for notated version: copied by P.W. Joyce from the Forde manuscript, which were coped in turn from a manuscript lent to Forde by piper Patrick Carey of County Cork (who is probably the Patrick Carew who supplied Petrie with so many tunes) [Joyce].
