FIT'S UPON ME NOW, THE. AKA and see "Bishop of Chester's Jig (The)," "Fit is Come Ower Me Now (The)." English, Country Dance Tune (9/8 time). D Major (Chappell): F Major (Barnes, Sharp). Standard tuning. AB (Chappell, Sharp): AABB (Barnes). The air dates to 1686 where it appears in the 7th edition of Playford's Dancing Master; it was later called "Bishop of Chester's Jig (The)" in the Playford publications. However, perhaps an older version of the air appears in the Panmure MS #9454 Seventy Seven Dances, Songs and Scots Airs for Violin, c. 1675. Robin Williamson opines that that the Panmure version is "a quirky piece of unusual structure."
