-   From John Garden:
+====== TYTHE PIG ======
-   The tune is an adaptation of one used in Dryden’s King Arthur. 6 bars are added at the
-   beginning of the original B music and the last two bars are not repeated as in the original.
+Purcell, Playford 1695, 6/4, 2 steps per bar
-   In the dance I have opted for a slightly different B part phrasing to that suggested
+<code>
-   by Nicholas Broadbridge and Marjorie Fennessy in their Purcell’s Dancing Master.
+A1 1-4  1st corners back to back
-   There the dancers clap own hands before clapping partner’s…. take one bar and the
+A2 1-4  2nd corners back to back
-   first cast just one bar, clapping with corner taking twice as long as that with
+B  1-2  face neighbours and clap own hands twice, neighbours twice
-   partner and has the first cast given only half the time of the second cast off.
+-4  All turn single away from neighbour
-   Neither is really ideal, as the clapping with partner is much shorter than with
+-6  Face partners and clap as above
-   neighbour (unlike, for example, in Dezais Les Mariners, .etc… but it does seems
+-8  1st couple cast, 2s lead up
-   to follow the musical phrase (the turn single contained to two bars of similar music).
+-10  C1 lead up and cast again, 2s stand still</code>
-   By having the partner clap on the first beat of the B part’s 5th bar, you don’t
-   take too much time from the first caste and you can consider both bars 5-6 and 9-10
-   casting bars – thus the descending melody.</code>
