The calls for the Jig Figure are:

All Hands Around.—The four couples join hands in a circle and swing once round to place.

Ladies to the Right.—The gentlemen remain in place, and each lady balances to the gentleman on her right, and turns him with both hands. She repeats the same with the next gentleman, and so continues round the set, ending by balancing and turning with her own partner. Then she resumes her place.

Gentlemen to the Right.—The ladies remain in place, and the gentlemen execute the figure in the same manner as the ladies, turning each of the ladies in succession.

All Hands Around.—All join hands and swing around in a circle to places.

Each gentleman has a chance to introduce his jig-steps, for he balances with each lady in succession.
