| '''COSSEY'S JIG'''. AKA - "Cassey's Jig," "The Cosey Jigg," "[[Casey's Jig]]," "[[Copey's Jig]], "[[Cossy Jigg (The)]]." AKA and see "[[Bain's Favorite]]," "[[Blain's Jig]]," "[[Captain Rock]]," "[[Charming Molly Brannigan]]," "[[Dwyer's Frolic]]," "[[Humors of Newtown (1)]]," "[[Jackson's Lodge (1)]]," "[[Jimmy O'Brien's Jig]]," "[[Maid in the Meadow (1)]]," "[[Molly Brallaghan]]." Irish, Jig. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABBCC. Breathnach (1996) believes the name Cossey comes from the Irish ''Cáthasaigh'', in English perhaps 'Casey'. The tune is from Samuel Lee's '''Jackson's Celebrated Irish Tunes''' (Dublin, 1774, republished in 1790), attributed to the 18th century gentleman composer Walker 'Piper' Jackson, of the townland of Lisduan, parish of Ballingarry, Aughrim, County Limerick. "[[Greenfields of America (1)]]" is a related tune in reel time, as are parts of "[[Captain Rock]]", "[[Charming Molly Brannigan]]", "[[Dwyer's Frolic]]", "[[Humors of Newtown (1)]]", "[[Jackson's Lodge]]", "[[Maid in the Meadow (1)]]", "[[Molly Brallaghan]] (1st part)" and "[[Stone in the Field (The)]]". See note for "[[Molly Brallaghan]]" for more on the family. Breathnach (1996) also identifies the alternate titles "[[Maid in the Meadow (1)]]/[[Mist in the Meadow (The)]]," from County Clare; "[[Jackson's Wife on the Road]]," from Galway and Westmeath; "[[Jolly Weaver (The)]]," from Cork and Tipperary. Clare fiddler Junior Crehan had a set dance version he called "[[Drunken Gauger (The)]]." "[[Jimmy O'Brien's Jig]]" is O'Neill's name for it. Scots fiddle-composer Niel Gow (1727-1807) printed a three-part "[[Cossy Jigg]]" in his '''Second Collection''' (1788), and acknowledged it was "Irish". It has some currency among Cape Breton fiddlers, where it also goes by the titles "[[Bain's Favorite]]" and "[[Blaine's Jig]]."
