X: 2 T:Never Was Piping So Gay M:2/2 L:1/8 C:Ed Reavy S:The Collected Compositions of Ed Reavy R:reel N:The concluding line of O'Driscoll's refrain in Yeats' poem, "The Host N:of N:he air". N:O'Driscoll dreamed that his wife Bridget was taken by the Host as he N:was N:laying harmlessly at N:cards with "the merry old men." When O'Driscoll awoke from his dream, N:all that remained of the dream was the strange unearthly sound of a N:pipe N:piping away in the distant air- "And never was piping so sad, And N:never was piping so gay."
