Back to Punch for the Ladies (1)


PUNCH FOR THE LADIES [1]. AKA and see “Ronayne's Jig,” "Shandon Bells." Irish, Jig. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. "In Mr. Pigot's book this tune is given along with 'Negus for Gentlemen' (p. 144), and the two were obviously linked together. Observe the intentional reverse: for punch is the proper drink for gentlemen, and negus for ladies" (Joyce). The word 'punch' derives from a Hindi word, panch, meaning ‘five’, because of it's five ingredients: spirits, water, lemon-juice, sugar and spices. The word was first recorded in English in 1669.
