24 Country Dances for the Year 1803 (Various)

Post by jc42 »

In page 9 (frame 10) of this collection (the Gray/Thompson one, not the other 1803 collections with the same name), there are two tunes and dances. The one on the right has a name that's partly missing. The left part looks like "The Fancy", though upper part of each letter is missing. The third doesn't have enough visible to determine what the third word is.

I checked around for this collection, and found only a few references, all to the IMSLP copy. Adding the name of the left tune, "Sleepy Moggy", didn't help. There are a few matches for it, mostly on dance programs, but no further information about the other tune.

Does anyone have access to a physical copy that can check this out? Is there perhaps a higher-resolution image that can tell us the title?

(I did find a number of tunes with titles like "The Fancy ...", none of them similar to the music on this page.)
