The elements of this dance have the following symbolic associations:
1-8      the pattern danced on the floor is a mirrored "B" for Bernard
9-16    _crown_ triangles for the _Royal_ Scottish Country Dance Society
17-24  depicts the fellowship and fun of SCD, which Bernard always epitomized
25-32  symbolizes the worldwide family of dancers to which we all belong

Table rows with a green background denote recordings starting with one of the recommended tunes and the usual number of repetitions for the dance (8). A yellow background means a recording with one of the recommended tunes but a non-standard number of repetitions. Recordings with a red background use a different tune and possibly a non-standard number of repetitions.

Recordings whose titles are in italics are not explicitly linked to this dance but have been identified by the database based on the type, bar count, and recommended tune(s) of the dance.
