Three couple set,
John Walsh's 1718 collection
A1 1-6 1st man casts below 2nd man, right-hand turns 3rd woman once
and casts above 2nd woman to his partner's original place
while 1st woman balances back then follows her partner round
2nd man and overtakes him as he is turning 3rd woman, crossing
the set below 2nd couple, and (now followed by 1st man) casts
up around 2nd woman and crosses the set again into 1st man's
original position, where she turns about left to face him.
7-8 1's left-hand turn half-way to original places.
A2 1st woman casts down, left-hand turns 3rd man and follows her
partner to his original place while 1st man balances back, follows her
and overtakes her as she turns 3rd man, then casts up to original place
where he turns about right to face her; 1's right-hand half-way to original places.
B1 Keeping right hands, 1's lead down the middle and (with man below woman)
face 2nd and 3rd woman; then without pause, both do a hey for three across
the room (1st man with 3's, 1st woman with 2's) starting as the 1's hey
between the women and then those women between their partners. Finally
(after a complete hey) 1's right-hand turn three-quarters to finish
improper in middle places.
B2 1-4 1's (now in middle) cross right shoulders, cast up to the top proper,
face down, turn single down and away from each other and again face down
with 2's and 3's facing up.
5-8 1's lead down the middle to the bottom, the other couples coming up
the outside to follow; 1's cast up to the middle places above 2's who
remains at bottom, 3's finish in top places.
All are progressed.
