Oats, peas, beans and barley grows,
As you and I and everyone knows...
Waiting for a partner.
There is a dance in New England called the "Ninepins Quadrille" that features designated dancers ('ninepins') scrambling for partners. In Scotland, too, Ninepins (or, as it was sometimes called, Ninepins Reel) was a part of the traditional dance repertoire, though it fell into a separate category from the reels and country dances. If set in reel time the melody is that of the French-Canadian classic "Bastringue (La)." The melody in jig time (6/8) is contained in the Joseph Kershaw manuscript as "Portuguese Dance." Kershaw was a fiddler who lived in Slackcote, Saddleworth, North West England, in the 19th century, and his manuscript dates from around 1820 onwards.
