Inscribed “For The Clan MacLeod Dancers of California.”
Note on bars 17–24.
This is what we called the ``angel setting’'. First you make sure you are dancing with someone you like!
The men are behind their partners taking both hands, with both hands joined both beginning facing corners, hands about shoulder height.
The men should be pretty close to their partners. You then dance hello-goodbye setting, remaining in this position throughout. The men must go further each time, with more drive, else it it does not work. Staying close together helps a lot.
