+<code>
+A:  First lady, fourth man cast right shoulder (their neighbours move
+    right into their place); middles gipsy right half-way with new opposite.
+    Middles right-hand star while ends give right hand, balance forward and
+    back; box the gnat — all now improper.
+B:  First man, fourth lady cast right shoulder (their neighbours move right
+    into their place); middles gipsy right half-way with partner.  Middles
+    right-hand star while ends give right hand, balance forward and back;
+    box the gnat — all now proper in the order 2, 1, 4, 3.
+C:  All back-to-back partner.  Circle left half-way.
+D:  Ends give right hand to partner to start four changes of a grand chain —
+    middles only do three changes.  All two-hand turn partner.
+Progressed position is 2, 4, 1, 3.  Repeat the dance three more times.
+</code>
+From Colin Hume: middles fall back a little further after the back-to-back to make a good circle, keep the circle shape for the grand chain (which is a circular movement), and then the middles move in for the final two-hand turn.  Four bars of waltz time for the turn is plenty, especially as I don't believe people need have to have hands joined at the start of the first bar.\\
