+**PRINCE WILLIAM**
+Prince William was choreographed in 1721 by L'Abbé, and probably named in
+honor of William Augustus, Duke of Cumberland, the
+infant son of George II, then Prince of Wales,
+certainly suitable for a young man who was to gain fame and notoriety as "the
+butcher" in his zealous management of the defeat and disarming of the Scottish
+Jacobites in the rebellion of 1745-1746!
+The tune
+was called "Rigodon”
