TEMPLE HILL. AKA and see "Colm O'Donnell's Favourite," "Molly on the Shore (2)," "Sweetheart Reel (The)," "They Sailed away from Dublin Bay," "Tripping thro' the Meadows." Irish, Reel (cut or whole time). Ireland, County Cork. A Dorian. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB (Stanford/Petrie): AABB (McGuire & Keegan). Petrie, who obtained the tune from the manuscript collection of Peter Carew, identified this as a tune from County Cork. It is a member of a large tune family (see alternate titles), but none predate Carew's tune. The reel is sometimes amalgamated with another reel in the Petrie collection (they are paired together on the same page) called “Molly on the Shore [1] & [2].”
