 +code>
 +A1: C1 lead down and cast around C2 (4 wz. measures) 
 +    while C2 wait 2 wz. measures, then turn half by R to change sides.
 +    C1 lead up, cast round C2 above, while C2 wait 2 wz. measures, 
 +    then turn half by the R to change sides.
 +
 +    At the top of the set, C1 will need to dance through a ghost C2.
 +
 +A2: C2 lead up, and cast around C1 above (4 wz. measures) while C1
 +    wait 2 measures, then turn half by the R to change sides.
 +    C2 lead down and cast round C1 below, while C1 wait 2 measures, 
 +    then turn half by the R to change sides.
 +
 +    C2 at the foot of set will need to cast around a ghost C1.
 +
 +B:  1st corners cross (2 wz. measures), 2nd corners cross (2 wz. measures)
 +    This corner crossing is almost a half-gypsy.
 +
 +    Circle half (2 wz. measures), C1 cast as C2 lead up (2 wz. measures).
 +    This circle should collapse a little bit, and C1 should peel off, 
 +    as C2 leads up the middle.
 +
 +A3: C1 full figure eight through C2 above OR
 +    Double figure 8, C2 cast to start as C1 pass between them (8 wz. measures).
 +</code>
 +
 +The hardest part of this dance comes right at the end, where the ones, 
 +who have been moving up the set doing the figure eight, have to start 
 +the next round of the dance by leading down  through a new number two 
 +couple below.
