In the top half of the table, each row shows the effect of using various
calls for one method. A Reverse Canterbury Plain is the standard call for each method,
then the other calls give different variations. What you do at a call is
shown in the lower half; read the set of work in the column below your
variation.
For instance, St Cuthberga is All Saints with a
Shipway Plain as the call. If you were about to do Long 3rds as a call was
made, you would do 3rd, 3 in 5ths and back in.

Star, on which all these variations are based.
