ROSASOLIS. AKA and see "Morris Off," "Black Eyed Susie (1)," "Three Jolly Sheepskins (1)," "Alas my little bag." English. Bayard (1981) states the tune is one of the earliest traceable folk-airs, going back to the Fitzwilliam Virginal Book (1610) where it was set by Giles Farnaby (c. 1560-c. 1600). It also appears in Jehan Tabourot's Orchesographie of 1588 in much the same form as it has today when used in English morris dances, where it is called "Morris Off" (it is called by Kidson and Moffat the earliest recorded morris tune). A variant of the Fitzwilliam version appears as a Welsh harp tune in Bennett's Alawon Fy Ngwlad (vol. 2, p. 136, 3rd tune). Later, from the early 17th century and throughout the 18th, in England a derivative of the tune was called "Three (Jolly) Sheepskins," and in Ireland it can be found in collections as "Aillilliu mo Mhailin" (Alas my little bag). The American derivative of the air is "Black-Eyed Susie."
