1C turn 1^st corners LH; turn partner RH to face 2^nd corners. 1C turn 2^nd corners LH; turn partners RH once round to end by taking LH with 2^nd corners and retaining RH with partner to form a diagonal line.

25-32

1C with 2^nd corners set; 1C drop hands with corners and set advancing to take LH with 1^st corners. 1C with 1^st corners set; 1C turn RH to 2^nd place on own sides.

Note: the turn in bars 23-24 is very fast; optionally, dancers can choose to RH to 1^st corners and dance the last figure with 1^st corners first.
