COMING HOME FROM THE BOG (Ag Teacht Abhaile ón bPortach). Irish, Reel. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. The tune has some similarities to "McFadden's Handsome Daughter," Breathnach (1985) finds, albeit notes that the turns are not the same. He records that "My Love is Fair and Handsome" is a Kerry title for the tune and the "The Gardener's Daughter" is a name for it in Sligo.

Source for notated version: fiddler Paddy Ryan (Co. Roscommon and Birmingham) [Breathnach].

Printed source: Breathnach (CRÉ II), 1976; No. 141, p. 76.
