A dance written to the well-known Irish song about a mythical sailing ship:  
*… an elegant craft, she was rigged fore and aft  
And how the Trade Winds drove her  
She had twenty-three masts and withstood several blasts  
And they called her The Irish Rover*

Note on “Lead or Dance on [1-4]”.  The original wording used by Cosh in “22 SCDs” was “lead”.  The RSCDS republished the dance in "Thirty  Popular Dances Vol.2" in November 2019. Page 36, and used “Dance”.  So that is now the correct handing.
