Note that the whole dance is palindromic. The figure in bars 9-24 is done 1st diagonal, 2nd diagonal, 2nd diagonal, 1st diagonal. The figure in bars 9-24 reminds me of bows tied on packages, thus the name 'Gifts.'
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.
