| Bars | |||
| 1-4 | All set to partners and turn them once round BH. | ||
| 5-8 | 1W and 3W change places RH. 1M and 3M change places LH. 1C and 3C end facing partners. |
||
| 9-16 | Interlocking rights and lefts: 1C and 3C change places with partners RH while 2C and 4C cross the set RH. 1C and 3C cross the set LH while 2C and 4C change places with partners LH. Repeat bars 9-12. All should time their crosses to make lines across or up and down the set on each change. |
||
| 17-24 | 3C and 1C take nearer hands with partners and set advancing to form a circle, circle halfway to the left to end facing opposite sides with other hands joined. 3C and 1C set then cast away from each other to original places to end facing partners. On the last bar 2C and 4C turn to face partners. | ||
| 25-32 | All turn partners ¾ RH to place women in the center LH joined and men facing CW. Women dance LH across halfway while men chase ¼ around the set CW. All turn the person they meet halfway by the RH to place the men in the center LH joined and women facing CW. Men dance LH across halfway while women chase ¼ CW. End 2, 3, 4, 1. | ||
