Contradiction edit

If this was written by Turlough O'Carolan, wouldn't it be an early 18th- rather than 19th-century composition? In which case, wouldn't the article need to revisit some of its commentary about "romantic nationalism" and "Another song ... also dates from the nineteenth century"?

Oh, never mind, it's explained in the lede as a 19th-century arrangement of an O'Carolan tune. Sorry, not reading carefully enough! Q·L·1968 19:17, 29 November 2016 (UTC)Reply
