Bouree, or Boree, a kind of dance composed of three steps joined together in two motions, begun with a crotchet rising. The first couplet contains twice four measures, the second twice eight. It consists of a balance and coupe.

BURR-PUMP, or Bilge-Pump, differs from the common pump, in having a staff, six, seven, or eight feet long, with a bar of wood, whereof the leather is nailed, and this serves instead of a box. So two men, standing over the pump, thrust down this staff, to the middle whereof is fastened a rope, for six, eight, or ten to bale by, thus pulling it up and down.
