LADY BANBURY'S HORNPIPE. Longways for as many as will; in three parts (3rd Ed. 1665). Barnes, CDB-4 N.B.--The tune is in triple time, i.e., three steps to the bar. All duple minor. It's triple progression; perhaps best done as four-couple set. (That's still 4(3AB), or 12 times to get everyone through. First part. A 1-4: 1s cast down (2s stay there), 1s cross over and stand first man on the outside of second woman (both facing down), first woman on the outside of second man (both facing up). B 1-2: Those people take inside hands and lead three steps the way they're facing, then fall back three steps. 3-4: 2s keep left hands with the 1s and turn right hands half-way; 1s orbiting in the outside track. When you get thre, ones fall into second place, 2s change places and finish progressed and proper. Second Part. A 1-2: Face new neighbors and take two hands. First corners backing, pousette up or down to finish in line of four down the middle of the set, 2nd corners in the middle. 3-4: First corners change places by going to their left. B 1-2: 2nd corners slip three slips to their own lefts, still facing up or down. 1st corners change places as the coast is clear. (We're now at compass points, more or less.) 3-4: All four right-hand star rather less than half-way round (three steps) to progressed improper place, and partners change places (progressive). Third Part. A 1: First man moves forward and stands above his partner, both facing up. 2: Bar 2 Second man in like manner moves in front of his partner. 3-4: All four move up three steps and fall back three steps (w.s.). B 1: 1s slip three slips to improper wall. 2: 2s the same. 3: 1s cast down, 2s lead up. 4: Partners change places. "Playford bars it, wrongly, as we believe, in duple time"
