BLOOMSBURY MARKET Interpreted by Ken Sheffield from Walsh, 1718 (from From Two Barns v3) 4-couple longways set, AABBx4. (Four steps to the bar) A1: 1-2: 1s cross down between the 2s, passing right shoulders (2s remain in place), and M1 curves around to turn W2 by the left (inside) hand once around while W1 curves around to turn M2 by the right (inside) hand. 3-4: 1s cross down between the 3s and 1s turn the 3s by the inside hand once around; 5-6: 1s cross down between the 4s, and 1s turn the 4s by the inside hand once round; 7-8: 1s cross over the 4s and cast (M1 to right and W1 left) up the outside of the set to original position. A2: 1-8: The 4s repeat this figure from the foot of the set (crossing up between 3s and curving around to turn them by the inside hand, etc.) all ending in original position. B1: 1-4: 1s and 2s at the top and 3s and 4s at the bottom, dance double figures of eight, thus: M1 gives right hand to his partner as she crosses down in front of him (2s begin by casting up), while M4 gives left hand to W4 as she crosses up (3s begin by casting down). End in facing lines of four, thus: TOP M2 M1 W1 W2 M3 M4 W4 W3 5: M1 and W4 cross over. (first corners of middle circle) 6: W1 and M4 cross over. (first corners of middle circle) 7-8: 2s cast to the top and 3s cast to the bottom WHILE 1s and 4 turn partners halfway to the proper side of the dance. End with set in in longways formation 2s-4s-1s-3s. B2: 1-4: Middles face ends. Men hey for four WHILE womeh hey for four (APW: rsh to start; source doesn't say). 5-6: Partners set and turn single 7-8: In fours, circle left (2s and 4s; 1s and 3s.) End 2s-4s-1s-3s, all proper.
