Got this from the playing of Jerry O'Sullivan's "O'Sullivan Meets O'Farrell. I did leave out most of the ornamentation, but it's best to do something with the long d's in the B part.

Published as "Lady Hariot Hope's Reel" in Joshua Cambell's 2nd Collection (Edinburgh, c1800), and in the usual Kerr's Merry Melodies and Skye Collection anthologies too. Usually in the key of F, but I'll transpose it for comparison:

That last line doesn't belong - it was left over from Paddy's submission. Sorry.

By the way, there is another unrelated reel of the same name composed by Robert Macintosh.
