| '''BUTTERED PEAS(E) [1]'''. AKA and see "[[Caithness]]," "[[Highland Wedding (1)]]," "[[Jack's be the Daddy On't]]," "[[Reel of Stumpie]]," "[[Stumpie]]/[[Stumpey]]," "[[No Man's Jig]]." English; Air, Reel or Country Dance Tune. England, Northumberland. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The tune can be found in James Ralph's '''Fashionable Lady''' (1730), and subsequently appeared in English ballad operas of the early 1730's such as John Gay's '''Achilles''' (1733, whose version of the words appear below), '''The Fashionable Lady, or Harlequin's Opera''' (1730), '''The Female Parson''' (1730), '''The Boarding School''' (1732), '''The Decoy''' (1733) and '''The Whim''' (1734). It became popular enough to have been transported to the Continent in the 18th century, where, for example it could be heard in Italy as "Piselli al Burro." "Buttered Pease" appears in several tune books and fiddlers' manuscripts from the 18th century. It was published by Walsh in his '''Compleat Country Dancing Master''' (London, 1731) and in a later (1754) edition of the same volume; by Johnson in (Daniel) Wright's '''Complete Collection of Celebrated Country Dances''' (London, 1740); by Charles and Samuel Thompson in their '''Compleat Collection of 200 Favourite Country Dances''', vol. 2 (London, 1765); and by James Aird in vol. 1 of his '''Selections of Scotch, English, Irish and Foreign Airs''' (Glasgow, 1782). It was included in the 1790 music manuscript copybook of London musician Thomas Hammersley, and the 1747 music manuscript of Walter Rainstorp, also from (Cheapside) London. Derivations (of the second strain) are the southwestern Pennsylvania-collected versions of "[[Drunken Sailor (2)]], well known by fifers and played as a march.

| Angus Mackay arranged the tune for the Highland pipes and called it "[[Highland Wedding (1)]]". See Bayard's note for the Pennsylvania collected "[[Drunken Sailor (2)]]," of which this tune forms the second strain. It is arranged as a duet by W.J. Stafford in Hall & Stafford's '''Charlton Memorial Tune Book'''.
