The first couple lead up the middle to places and cast off one place (sk.s.) ; and turn each other once round (r.s.) (progressive).\\ Note 2.—To make the dance a three couples set - the first couple, while executing the turn in the last four bars, should move down to the bottom place, the third couple meanwhile casting up one place.
