Schottische

The aim of whose existence appears to be that of rattling through the polka or schottische with the velocity of a spinning jenny.

[…] this abominable German usage we have imported—the polka and the schottish too […]

[…] I could never dare to face Madame Mélanie Duval, or the Semiramis of dancing mistresses, Madame Michau Adelaide—study the fashionable steps in secret, and then burst upon the world as an adept in the Schottische, the Cellarius, and the Deux Temps?

The ‘Polka tremblante’, or Schottisch, is also a Bohemian national dance, and was brought out in Paris by Cellarius in 1844.

[…] the Schottische is very seldom danced now in its original form[…]

It so happened that Pippi was learning to dance the shottische^([sic]), and she didn't want to go to bed until she was sure she could do it.

I could only schottische a little.

I polked and schottisched with a step peculiar to myself—and the kangaroo.
