I found this routine in SIO 11/1956 named Easy Does It. It is a good example of the rhyming patter that was popular in the 1950s. After the final Box the
Gnat the formation = FL (1/2) which is an unusual formation for an Allemande Left.

Instead of "Couple on the Left", use Heads or Sides as appropriate. Dancers need to be aware of whether they are head or side couples).
REVERSE wheel around likely should be workshopped before calling this get-out. The "reverse wheel around" goes with the flow of the bend the line, and boys will connect in the center of the new two-faced line.
If you're calling PLUS, Just Girls TRADE can become Just Girls do your part Trade the Wave. Everybody Trade & Face your Partner obviously becomes Trade & Roll
