The first man and wo. cast off into the 2. Cu. place and meet, and go round each other back to back, and then cast off into your own places, and do the same over again, to the first Strain of the Tune. Then the two men clap hands with each other, and the two we. with each other, and then with your wo. next, the first Cu. cast off into the 2. Cu. places, and clap hands as they did before, and turn your own wo. once round; and do so to the end.
