Заметки
Experienced dancers will notice the resemblance between this dance and The Clansman (RSCDS Book 32), the original dance with a Targe. The main change is to the first 8 bars, which I hope dancers will find more straightforward.
A broadsword was traditionally used by a Highlander along with a targe.
