'''ALL ROUND THE ROOM.''' Irish, Reel (4/4 time). D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB. "All Round the Room" is from the 1883 music manuscript collection of County Leitrim musician Stephen Grier. The first strain is cognate with the second strain of Canon James Goodman's "[[Sporting Days of Easter (4) (The)]]." Musician and researcher Conor Ward finds both strains cognate with "[[Let's be Gay]]" from '''Ryan's Mammoth Collection''' (1883), which itself is a derivative of the Scottish "[[Duke of Perth]]."

The melody appears in publisher James Alexander's '''Alexander's 50 New Scotch & Irish Reels & Hornpipes''' (c. 1826) as "[[Lady Douglas's Reel]]" attributed to the mysterious "W.J." who is credited with a half-dozen tunes in publisher James Alexander's '''Alexander's 50 New Scotch & Irish Reels & Hornpipes''' (c. 1826). The volume was edited by a "professional musician," who may have been "W.J." himself, or perhaps he was merely a contributor.
