Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB. The tune under this title was from J. Playford's The First Part of Musick's Handmaid, 1678; Glen says it was also in the 1663 edition of that work. Playford included it in his 1669 Musick's Recreation under the name "Montrose's March," as did Oswald in his Curious Collection of 1740.
