I don't have the dance mentioned so I started to analyse what I'd be 
able to respond to by reformatting the above to short lines of complete, 
necessary words. I just couldn't picture it in the narrative style.

It looked like I was missing something for my understanding of the 
dance. I didn't find it on-line, however looking in my personal archives 
of this list I found a discussion about the dance from 2012.10.26-28

According to one poster Young Adult Rose _is_ danced with an allemande left.

Young Adult Rose

Dup imp/L2i

A1 N Bal. & Sw
A2 Cir. L 3/4, pass through
       Shadow Al. L 1x
B1 P Bal. & Sw
B2 Ladies Chain
      LH Star 1x

"identical to "Baby" except for the A2."
