- (continued from previous page)Lura, Lara long Wig,
Ellen M'Lock broke the clock,
Hum, bum thrush.
Whoever "thrush" falls on will have to stand in a corner while the others whispers different names to each other. Then they say to the girl in the corner: "A car passed here today", she will say "Who was in it." They will say the names they whispered and also "Which will you have." She will say one of these names and whatever girl she will have to go up and carry her down and someother body replaces her.
