This dance is sometimes billed as a 200-bar dance. This confusion arises from the question of whether in Figures 1 and 2, bars 1-8 (»honouring« partners and corners) are part of the »repetition« done with 2nd and 4th couples leading, which would lead to an extra 16 bars altogether. The most recent versions of this dance description make it clear that the »honouring« is *not* part of the repetition, hence 184 bars.
Table rows with a green background denote recordings starting with one of the recommended tunes and the usual number of repetitions for the dance (1). 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.
