IN PADDY'S LOVE. AKA and see "Bath Medley," Irish, English; Jig (6/8 time). G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The tune long had a history in England under the titles "Bath Medley" and others. It was included as "In Paddy's Love" in the 1817 music manuscript collection of Patrick McGahan of Dungooley, County Louth, on the Armagh border. The title may possibly reference the tune's use in St. Pierre's ballet "Paddy's Love", staged in Dublin in 1805. It was still being performed by St. Pierre and company (as "Erin's Isle; or, Paddy's Love) in 1819 where the bill touted:
In the course of the ballet will be introduced a pas de deux by Master St. Pierre and Miss Crawford; a pas de quatre by Miss Cassidy, Miss St. Pierre, Miss St. Clair and Miss Crawford. A comic dance by Paddy’s father (St. Pierre) and Dolly (Simon). A reel by eight children who will dance a set of quadrilles composed by St. Pierre expressly for this night.
