First Cu. change places and sides with the second Cu. and turn each other, then the second Cu. side, and turn again into their places; next, each Cu. cross over and change places, and go the Figure of 8. then the first man fall back and turn his own; the rest do the same. This to the first Strain of the Tune.

This to the second Strain of the Tune.
