JUST IN THE HEIGHT OF HER BLOOM. AKA and see "Seanduine Coileailte (An)," "Silly Old Man (The)," "Girls Take Care How You Marry," "Swaggering Jig (1) (The)," "Noggin of Cream (The)," "Tiggit Along the Room," "Old Woman's Consort (The)," "Welcome the Piper," "Munster Rake (The)." Irish, Air (9/8 time). D Mixolydian. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. Collector P.W. Joyce [1] (1827-1914) thought the song to be about a man who married a girl with a good education who turned out to be a very bad housekeeper, but only remembered the chorus:
So beware of those boarding-school lasses,
And never by beauty be led;
The girl that all others surpasses
Is one that can work for her bread.
The tune for the song is the popular slip jig "Swaggering Jig (The)," also known by the titles "Seanduine Coileáilte (An)" (Breathnach - CRÉ II, 98), "McDonnell's Rant" (O'Farrell - NIM p 23), "Virgin Queen (The)," "Jockey Has Gotten a Wife," "Pol Ruadh," "Táim in arrears," and "In debt in the public house."
