- Game
I have a glove on my right hand. This game is played outside, and there is a ring of people standing around. One person stays out and gets a hand full of grass in his hands. He goes round and round the ring and says :- "I have a glove on my right hand, it burns very hot whoever I like the best I will throw it at Not you, not you, but surely not you, not you, not you, but surely not you" He goes round the ring for once or twice and then describes some person in the ring. The kind of his hair, the way he is dressed and who he is like. Then the person whom he describes runs after the describer until he is caught. - Collector
