Transcription: by Darryl D. Bush
The melody is called "Hulet's Health" (“Sláinte Bhreagh Huilet” or
"a toast to Hulet") in Edward Bunting's 1809 collection of Irish tunes.
This “lively bacchanalian composition” (ie: ‘bawdy drinking song’) is
generally credited to O'Carolan. The subject, Hewlett, has not been identified.
I learned it from Don Wisniewski's collection.
