 +**JACK'S MAGGOT**\\
 +Over twenty dances named for the ubiquitous "Jack" can
 +be found in the early eighteenth century, possibly
 +references to the Jacobites, who supported the return of
 +the Stuarts to the throne. A variant of this dance
 +continued in eighteenth-century country dance collections
 +with new tunes entitled "The Rakes of Mellow" and "Jack's
 +Meggot."
