In the winter nights when I am finished with my lessons I play threwing rings on old King Cole's nose Dominoes tea-set drawing with chalk, marbles Blind man's Buff. We play these singing games when we have visitors. "Bobby Bingo," "Here we come gathering nuts in May" "Here we come Lubby Lu" "This is the way we cut out bread"
In the summer I play sweing ball Tig "Hide and go seek." I play house.
On Hallow e'en nights I play catching an apple in a basin of water. The ones that take a bit out of an apple hanging from the ceiling will get it. At tea-time the one that gets the ring in the cake will be married the first.- Collector
