    Endearing Waltz--to thy more melting tune
    Bow Irish jig, and ancient rigadoon.
    Scotch reels, avaunt! and country-dance forego
    Your future claims to each fantastic toe!
    Waltz--Waltz alone--both legs and arms demands,
    Liberal of feet, and lavish of her hands.

Twelve dancers are dancing, and taking no rest,
And closely their hands together are press'd;
And soon read more

Twelve dancers are dancing, and taking no rest,
And closely their hands together are press'd;
And soon as a dance has come to a close,
Another begins, and each merrily goes.

It's the heart afraid of breaking that never learns to dance. It is the dream afraid of waking that never read more

It's the heart afraid of breaking that never learns to dance. It is the dream afraid of waking that never takes the chance. It is the one who won't be taken who cannot seem to give. And the soul afraid of dying that never learns to live.

In a light fantastic round.

Teach kings to fiddle, and make senates dance.

On with the dance! let joy be unconfin'd;
No sleep till morn, when Youth and Pleasure meet.

Hot from the hands promiscuously applied,
Round the slight waist, or down the glowing side.

Was sure intended for the corpse de ballet.
