  1. (continued from previous page)
    Then the girl would ask her what did she want and she'd say colours. When she'd get the colours she wanted the other girl would come and knock at the girls back. She'd ask her who she was, and she'd say "The devil with the black horns". Then she'd say, what do you want, and she'd say colours. At the end of the game who ever has the most children wins the game.
