CAREY'S MAGGOT. AKA - "Caries Maggott." English, "Old" or Triple Hornpipe and Country Dance Tune (3/2 time). D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB (Offord): AABB (Playford). "Carey's Maggot" was first printed (as "Carries Maggott") by London music publisher Henry Playford in his Dancing Master, 11th edition (1701, p. 269). It was retained in the long-running Dancing Master series of editions through the 18th edition of 1728, then published by Playford's successor, John Young, albeit with the altered spelling "Cary's Maggot." The dance and tune were also published by rival London music publisher John Walsh and appear in his Compleat Country Dancing Master (editions of 1718, 1735 and 1749), with the spelling "Carey's Maggot" in the latter two Walsh editions.
