9-16 | 1C, 2C, 3C Set and dance La Barratte* (End on opposite sides) |

21-32 | Rights and Lefts for 3 couples, ending ready for 2C to start a new round. |
*Directions for La Barratte:
La Barratte takes only 6 Bars so it usually starts with set.
1-2 | Set |
3-4 | Cross RH until arms are almost fully extended |
5 | Dance back the path you just traveled. But woman pull back RS slightly & raise R arm so you can dance under own R arm - Both couples are now facing down the dance. Woman has back to partner. |
6 | Man hold out LH - palm UP. Woman bring LH up UNDER man's LH & wrap fingers over top of his palm. Let go RHs. As man raises L arm slightly - Woman dances UNDER his L arm. LHs are now in proper SD grip. |
7-8 | Dance out to opposite sides. |
Note: Bars 5-6 are crucial bars with a lot to do quickly. I would suggest practicing them until you can dance quickly, smoothly and automatically.
