How are you getting on? The second verse is coming up, let’s look at the vocabulary:
| master of the house, man of the house |
The first two lines start pairing up the couples who were at the dance:
| The man of the house danced with the good-wife,
The skivvy with the servant |
The second two lines continue that theme of pairing off the couples:
| The cowherd danced with the milkmaid,
My grandfather and grandmother danced together
|
Now we’re comfortable, let’s put the four lines together:
| The man of the house danced with the good-wife,
The skivvy with the servant,
The cowherd danced with the milkmaid,
My grandfather and grandmother danced together
