BOYNE WATER [2]. English, Sword Dance; New England, Polka. F Mixolydian (Karpeles, Raven): F Major (Miller & Perron). Standard tuning (fiddle). ABCD (Karpeles, Raven): AABB (Miller & Perron). Appears to bear little relation to version #1 save for one brief descending melodic line. The mode shifts between major, mixolydian and dorian, and the tonic note between 'F' and 'G'.

There was a military march of this name used in the British army in the Revolutionary War period, though it may be the tune in version #1. It is the fourth figure in the sword dance from the village of Sleights, England.
