This dance is dedicated to Anika Lange and Wolfgang Hahn on the occasion of their wedding. The four half reels represent the Irish clover, as Ireland is special to them, as much as is Scottish Country Dancing. The last figure - of course - is „walking down the aisle.“ Second couple is dancing couple.
