This pretty little song is the composition of George Nugent Reynolds, the author of a musical interlude called Banlry Bay,
performed in London in 17!)7, the music to which was written by William Reeve ; Reynolds died in 1802. The composer of the
air, "Kathleen O'More" has drawn upon some well known Irish melodies for his inspiration, notable among these being the
" Black Joke."
