To know to and from what Positions, Steps move .
I might have mark’d the
Positions
, in which each
Step
ought to terminate; but since this must have created a great deal of Trouble, I shall only confine my self to mark them on join’d and inclos’d
Steps
, and for the rest, whether forwards, backwards, sideways, or cross’d, the
Positions
may be easily known, without marking them, in observing that which follows.
Steps which move forwards or backwards, shall be taken to be in the fourth Position.
Steps which move streight, opening sideways, shall be taken to be in Second the Position, and Steps crossing, whether forwards or backwards, shall be taken to be in the fifth Position.
| To move to the fourth Position, and afterwards to the second. | To move to the fifth Position, and afterwards to the second. | To move to the fifth Position, and afterwards to the fourth. |
| To move to the fifth Position, and afterwards to the second. | To move to the second Position, and afterwards to the fifth. | To move to the second Position, and afterwards to the fifth. |
If it should happen nevertheless, that any of the above-mention’d Steps should terminate upon both Feet, as it often happens in rising and springing, it is then necessary to mark the Position; without which it would be impossible to know, that the rising and springing should be on both Feet; wherefore, in demonstrating the Positions of join’d and inclos’d Steps, I will add to them those before-mention’d, on which I will also mark the Positions, to make Use of on Occasion.
