The MMM publication has “dance down the middle and up” for bars 9–16. However the TAC notes for MMM say this should be “lead” not “dance” down.

Largo Law

Largo Law is a conical hill, an extinct volcano, in East Fife. The law rises to 948 feet and the view from the summit is superb. There is a legend that a chief in silver armour was buried under the hill and in the early 19th century a treasure trove of silver was found by a man digging sand. One wonders which came first, the legend or the discovery.

The villages of Upper and Lower Largo lie between the law and the Firth of Forth. Alexander Selkirk, the original “Robinson Crusoe”, was born in Lower Largo in 1676.
