- About a fortnight before Christmas a dozen boys bind up and call themselves Christmas Rhymers. They have a lot of rhymes such as " King George ", " Black Prince " " Doctor Brown " and " Jack Straw ". The first boy says Make room , Make room my gallant boys
And give us room to rhyme
For we will show you some activity about this Christmas time
Act of young and act of old the likes of us you never saw acting on the stage before. If you don't like to belive me enter in the next man, and so on.After coming in the leader shares the money equally so that everyone is satisfied- Collector
