HUMORS OF PURTEEN, THE. AKA - "What call have you to me Ned?" AKA and see "Huish the Cat," "Jackson's Humours of Panteen." Irish, Jig (6/8 time). D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The first part of Goodman's "Humors of Purteen" is shared with "What call have you to me, Ned?" from a 19th century Sliabh Luachra music manuscript that Breathnach called the "Curtin Manuscript" (No 60). Bunting's "Huish the Cat," from harper Charles Byrne (1802), is cognate in both parts, but more distances in the second than the first.
