Inspired by a small kite with long red tails seen soaring above a local park earlier in the day. The deviser has since learnt that a ‘dragon’ is also ‘a paper kite’.

it should read:
17–24 First couple, first woman followed closely by her partner, dance a reel of three across the set with first couple passing second woman by right shoulders to begin.
