MISS LACEY'S HORNPIPE. AKA and see “Mona's Delight.” Irish, Hornpipe. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The tune bears some resemblance to an untitled Pennsylvania collected reel (Bayard {Dance to the Fiddle}, 1981; No. 100, p. 59). See also the Manx cognate "Mona's Delight," which itself is based on the dance tune "Goddesses (1)" published by John Playford in 1651. Although quite distanced, it may be that "Miss Lacey's" is also a derivative.
