3.  “Gay breezes tossing the leaves about,
   What are you playing at when you’re out?”
   “Little maid, little man, come and see: 
   Here we go racing from tree to tree;
   Oh, it is jolly! we never flag;
   This is our merriest game of tag.”

4.  “Grasshoppers out in the meadow so sweet,
   What do you play with your nimble feet?”
   “Little maid, little man, one, two, three;
   Hipperty, hopperty, can’t catch me! 
   Oh, such a merry, delightful game! 
   Hop-scotch you young folks call its name.”
