THE CAMBRIDGE WALTZ
Thompson, 1816
Green Barnes 3/4 time  - music on "Dance and Danceability"
Longways duple minor

A1:  W1 sets twice to M2 (or chasse and set); then turn two hands once round.
A2:  M1 the same with W2.

B1:  1s lead down; woman turns under joined arms to both face up;
     lead up to 2nd place (2s moving up).

B2:  Swing corners (per "Abbesses", "Trip to Kilburne"):
     1s pass Rsh, turn 1st corners with 2 hands (3/4, face partner up and down);
     pass Rsh again and turn 2nd corners with 2 hands (3/4, face partner
     across), finishing proper in 2nd place.

C2:  1s and 2s waltz (or poussette, I should think) around each other to 
     finish progressed and proper.
