RAMBLER IN CORK, THE (An Reatuide I Corcaig). AKA and see “Cork Rambler (The).” Irish, Reel. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. See also the related “Sword in Hand," and the first strain of Canon James Goodman's mid-19th century collected "Union is Welcome in Ireland (The)" (the second differs). Paul de Grae believes the title may be an invention of Francis O'Neill's [1].
