Delaney's
This comes from the brothers Mike & Paddy Rafferty [ flute & lilting respectively ] from the "Leg Of The Duck" cassette tape recording which I've just posted. Lovely in its' simplicity.
This is in Breathnach's Vol.1 as"Port Tineatha", but in Dmix, instead of Emix - the lad have transposed it up a whole tone.

Reminds me of the Walls of Liscarrol, which is played in both Edor and Dmix.

Martin Hayes plays this in Dmin and calls it The Garden of Butterflies on "The Lonesome Touch". Roughly as follows.

Sorry, that should have been Dmix with an f major in the fourth and eighth bars of the second part. I must have been spending too much time in the garden with the butterflies.

I learnt this one in Dmix. It's very similar to the Hag's Purse http://www.thesession.org/tunes/display/926.

It seems true that this is an old version of Walls of Liscarroll.
