Gathering Peascods Gathering Peascods is a dance 'for as many as can make a circle' (ideally 2-4 pairs). First published by Cecil Sharp in 1911, the dance was already one of the oldest in the English Dancing Master when it was published in 1651. 'Peascods' were pea pods - there was an early tradition of predicting love affairs using pea pods.
