'''PHILLIDA FLOUTS ME.''' English, Air (3/8 time). B Flat Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABBC. The 16th century ballad "Phillida flouts me; or, The Country Lovers Complaint" appears in printed broadside sheets (it is in the Roxburghe collection), John Watts' '''Musical Miscellany''' (1729) and '''The Quaker's Opera''' (1728). Chappell notes that Walton's '''Angler''' (1653) references the tune when the Milkwoman asks, "What song was it, I pray? Was it 'Come Shepherds, deck your heads', or 'As the noon Dulcina rested', or 'Phillida flouts me'?" The tune was also called "Love one another," derived from a song called "The Protestant Exhortation," published by John Playford in 1680, though in a "ruder and therefore probably earlier version of the one given" (in his '''Popular Music of the Olden Times, vol 2''').

The air was the melody for songs in '''The Quaker's Opera''' (1728), '''Love in a Riddle''' (1729), and '''Damon and Phillida''' (1734).
