What a thoroughly excellent idea for a thread (as one might expect, given its originator).
It was old Farmer Maggot's daughers who were dancing the hobbit favourite, during the scene at his house in
Bombadil Goes Boating:
Quote:
Goodman Maggot there for all his belt was dancing;
Tom did a hornpipe when he was not quaffing,
daughters danced the Springle-ring, goodwife did the laughing.
