Then the other children go under their hands in one line saying "Hollow Hollow High-Gates", and the last one is asked which would she prefer a gold watch, or a gold chain, and she is to behind the person which is her choice and the game is continued until each of the "Watch and the "Chain" has their number number and then the game is decided by a Tug-a-war.
