OAKEN LEAVES [2]. AKA and see "Milkmaid's Bob." 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 English Dancing Master (1650) under the title "Milk Maid's Bob," and only appeared only in the 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.
