Lass or Lasses?

The supplied information does not confirm whether the singular title is a variant name for the same tune or a separate setting. If you need a particular version, compare the opening key, time signature and melodic material in the score.

Key, time and what they do not tell you

The scores are listed with an opening one-sharp key signature described as G major and a 2/2 opening time signature.
