CCCXIV.

[Song set to five toes.]

1. Let us go to the wood, says this pig;
2. What to do there? says that pig;
3. To look for my mother, says this pig;
4. What to do with her? says that pig;
5. Kiss her to death, says this pig.

CCCXV.

[A number of boys and girls stand round one in the middle, who
repeats the following lines, counting the children until one
is counted out by the end of the verses.]

Ring me (1), ring me (2), ring me rary (3),
As I go round (4), ring by ring (5),
A virgin (6) goes a maying (7),
Here's a flower (8), and there's a flower (9),
Growing in my lady's garden (10),
If you set your foot awry (11),
Gentle John will make you cry (12),
If you set your foot amiss (13),
Gentle John (14) will give you a kiss.

[The child upon whom (14) falls is then taken out, and
forced to select one of the other sex. The middle child then
proceeds.]

This [lady or gentleman] is none of ours,
Has put [him or her] self in [the selected child's] power,
So clap all hands, and ring all bells, and make the wedding o'er.

[_All clap hands._]

[If the child taken by lot joins in the clapping, the selected
child is rejected, and I believe takes the middle place.
Otherwise, I think, there is a salute.]

CCCXVI.

[Another game, played exclusively by boys. Two, who are fixed
upon for the purpose, leave the group, and privately arrange
that the pass-word shall be some implement of a particular
trade. The trade is announced in the dialogue, and then the
fun is, that the unfortunate wight who guesses the "tool" is
beaten with the caps of his fellows till he reaches a fixed
goal, after which he goes out in turn.]

"Two broken tradesmen,
Newly come over,
The one from France and Scotland,
The other from Dover."
"What's your trade?"

[Carpenters, nailors, smiths, tinkers, or any other is
answered, and on guessing the instrument "plane him, hammer
him, rasp him, or solder him," is called out respectively
during the period of punishment.]

CCCXVII.

Clap hands, clap hands,
Hie Tommy Randy,
Did you see my good man?
They call him Cock-a-bandy.

Silken Stockings on his legs,
Silver buckles glancin',
A sky-blue bonnet on his head,
And oh, but he is handsome.

CCCXVIII.

[A song set to five fingers.]
