| 1&2: | Side with this new person (right). |

| Chorus 2, Part A | |
| 1: | Odd opposites meet a double. |

| 1: | Even opposites meet a double. |
| 2: | Even opposites fall back and make an arch -AS- odd opposites cast off, circle around behind their corner and meet their partners briefly behind the even opposites. |
| 3: | Odds lead your partner under the even opposites' arches and into the center of the square. |
| 4: | Odds fall back with your opposite to where you started this figure. |

| Verse 3, Part A | |
| 1&2: | Arm with your opposite (left). |

| Verse 3, Part B | |

| Chorus 3, Part A | |
| 1: | Odd couples meet a double. |
| 2: | Odd couples fall back a double, taking with them their respective corners so that the set turns into two lines of four facing each other. |

| 1: | Even couples meet a double. |
| 2: | Even couples fall back a double, taking with them their respective corners, forming two lines of four. |
| 3: | Lines double forward. |
