- (continued from previous page)Are ye ready for to fight for we are the Irish Soldiers
English Soldiers reply–
Yes, we are ready for to fight, for to fight, for to fight.
Yes, we are ready for to fight for we are the English Soldiers
Then both rows say–
Now we are in the Battle Field, the Battle Field, the Battle Field
Now we are in the Battle Field
Then a mock battle takes place between the players and this finishes the game - Any number of players stand in a row. Then some one of them must count 1,2,3, +c and whoever is "20" must take the part of the "Blind Man". This one is then blindfolded with a handkerchied and she hunts the others around until she succeeds in catching some one.
The hunter must then name the girls she has caught and if she answers correctly the captured girl must unt but if she answers incorrectly she must hunt again and continue until she succeeds in giving the correct name.- Collector
