The Dance: 

1s advance & retire (taking RH), turn halfway 2H (finish on opposite sides, facing down, 2s facing up); 1s & 2s advance & retire (taking RH), turn halfway 2H (1s finish between corners).

1s, 2s & 3s advance & retire, all turn partners 2H; 1s cast round 1st corners (W up, M down) (finish in the middle facing 1st corners).

1s set to 1st corners, 1s dance round each other to the R (clockwise) (finish facing 2nd corners); 1s set to 2nd corners, 1s dance round each other to the R (clockwise) (finish in 2nd place, own sides).

1s, 2s & 3s dance Reels of 3 on the sides (1st M gives RS to 2nd M and 1st W gives RS to 3rd W to begin the reels; 1s change sides on bars 3-4, and start the second half-reel on opposite sides on bars 5-6, then cross to own sides on bars 7-8; effectively, the 1s are dancing around a big oval as the others continue their reels).

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.
