Origins
This piece is from Scotland. There is a reel of the same name.
The abc score was taken - by me - from Andrew Kuntz's Fiddler's Companion at http://www.ibiblio.org/fiddlers/MARQ_MARS.htm

Yes, Scotland it is... Over time and publication the reel and strathspey are pretty much the same melody, as is this transcription and Dafydd's, with some differences. That's where the "sort of" comes in... It's good you had the courtesy to give credit...
