WOODS SO WILD, THE. AKA and see "Greenwood," "Huntsman (The)." English, Air (3/4 time). G Mixolydian or G Dorian. Standard tuning (fiddle). One part. The air was set twice by the English composer William Byrd and Chappell (1859) gives an alternate ending by another famous composer, Orlando Gibbons. Apparently there were words written to it that have not survived. It appears in The Fitzwilliam Virginal Book, Lady Neville's Virginal Book, William Ballet's Lute Book, Pammelia (1609), and Playford's English Dancing Master (1650).
