OAKEN LEAVES [2]. English, Country Dance Tune (6/8 time). F Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). One part (Sharp): AAB (Barnes). The tune was first published in John Playford's Dancing Master, 4th edition (1670) as "Oaken Leaves" [1]. It was retained in subsequent editions through the eighth edition of 1690, after which it disappears from the long-running series.
