Delighted to see this old, long·before·my·time, thread refreshed. Brought back 65-yr-old memory of the tune of 'Bo Dodi", which I recall as perhaps the most beautiful I know [along probably with 'Shebeag & Shemor' and 'Battle Of The Somme']. I remember the dance too ~~ a partner, not a circle, dance, which ended in a sort of modified polka.
