Tune: Glorishears (traditional) Source: traditional Choruses: walk around with salute at top of the set; walk around with galley at the top of the set; walk around with "beetle crusher" at the top of the set; leapfrogs using upright capers Figures: once to yourself, foot up & down, half gyp, back-to-back, rounds & all up.
Chorus #1: dancers walk around in a circle. On beat 1 of each measure, the dancer at the top of the set salutes (“shows”). Chorus #2: same as chorus #1, but with dancers doing a galley at the top instead of a salute. Chorus #3: same as chorus #1, but with dancers doing a "beetle crusher" caper at the top instead of a salute. Chorus #4: Dancers walk around in a circle. On beat 1 of each measure, a dancer leapfrogs over the dancer in front of them using upright capers. The order of leaping is #1/#2 (meaning #1 leaps over #2), #4/#6, #5/#3, #2/#1, #6/#4, #3/#5
Face up. Two double steps in the “up” direction (one stationary, one in place). Galley (out from the center). Foot-together-jump to face down. Face down. Two double steps in the “down” direction (one stationary, one in place). Galley (out from the center). Foot-together-jump ¾ of the way around to face across.
Face across. Two double steps, one to cross to your partner's position (starting on the left foot1) and passing by the right shoulder) and one in place. Hop backs to return to place.

Face across. Two double steps: on the first one cross to your partner's position (starting on the left foot and passing by the right shoulder), and on the second one slide to your right.

On the catch-step (“and”) before the downbeat, hop into a circle and face clockwise. Middles will need to move outwards (“bulge”). One double step around the circle (clockwise). On the second double step spiral into a clump, ending halfway around the circle but closer to the center. Hop backs to your corner's place (halfway around the circle). Foot-together-jump. On the catch-step (“and”) before the downbeat, all dancers turn a little more than 180° over their left shoulders (“hard turn”) and go back the way they came (counter-clockwise).
