| '''BILL HARTE'S JIG [1]''' (Port Liam Uí Airt). AKA and see "Did you see my man looking for me? [2]," "The Rookery [2]," "Sonny Brogan's [1]," AKA - "Tom Hearte's." Irish, Double Jig. D Mixolydian. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB (Breathnach): AABB (Harker/Rafferty, Mallinson). Breathnach (1976) notes the tune was not original with source Harte, and that it was related to "Bímid ag ól [1]," "Jackson's Humours of Panteen" and "Huish the Cat." In fact, the melody was used as an air, and Breathnach notes that Sligo musician John Brennan used to sing "Did you see my man looking for me?" to it. The mother of Tom Barrett, from Knockbrack, Lyreacrompane, near Tralee, would sing to it this soothing song for a child:
