YOUNG TERENCE MACDONOUGH (Toirdealac Og Mic Doncad). AKA and see "Lament for Terence MacDonough," "Moon dimmed her beams (The)," "Once again, but how changed." Irish, Slow Air or Planxty (3/4 time). G Minor. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. The air (as "Lament for Terence MacDonough") was composed by Turlough O'Carolan in 1696 in to commemorate the death of the son of Terence MacDonogh of Sligo, the only Catholic lawyer permitted to practice at the close of the 17th century and beginning of the 18th. The melody was first printed in Dublin by the Neals in "Collection of the Most Celebrated Irish Tunes" (c. 1724), and later in The Hibernian Muse (London 1787). The melody was used with Sir Walter Scott's poem "The Return to Ulster" and was also employed as the air to the song "The Moon Dimmed Her Beams".
