T. Durfey’s _Collin’s Walk through London_, 1690, p. 192, says: “Hurling is an ancient sport us’d to this day in the countys of Cornwall and Devon, when once a year the hardy young fellows of each county meet; and a cork ball thinly plated with silver being thrown up between ’em, they run, bustle, and fight for it, to the witty dislocating of many a shrew’d neck, or for the sport of telling how bravely their arms or legs came to be broke, when they got home.” It is fully described by Carew in his _Survey of Cornwall_, 1602, p. 73. It is also a very ancient Irish game, and Mr. Kinahan says: “Many places are called after it: such as, Killahurla, the hurlers’ church; Gortnahurla, the field of the hurlers; Greenanahurla, the sunny place of the hurlers; this, however, is now generally corrupted into hurling-green. The hurling-green where the famous match was played by the people of Wexford against those of Cather (now divided into the counties of Carlow and Wicklow), and where the former got the name of yellow bellies, from the colour of the scarfs they wore round their waist, is a sunny flat on the western side of North Wicklow Gap, on the road from Gorey to Trinnahely. There are also many other different names that record the game.”—_Folk-lore Journal_, ii. 266. See “Bandy,” “Camp,” “Football,” “Hockey,” “Hood,” “Shinty.” Hurly-burly An undescribed boys’ game. In it the following rhyme is used— Hurly-burly, trumpy trace, The cow stands in the market-place; Some goes far, and some goes near, Where shall this poor sinner steer? —Patterson’s _Antrim and Down Glossary_. For a similar rhyme see “Hot Cockles.” Huss Children play a game which is accompanied by a song beginning— Hussing and bussing will not do, But go to the gate, knock, and ring— Please, Mrs. Brown, is Nellie within? —Parish’s _Dictionary of the Sussex Dialect_. Hustle Cap A boys’ game, played by tossing up halfpence. It is mentioned in _Peregrine Pickle_, cap. xvi. Cope (_Hampshire Glossary_) says, “Halfpence are placed in a cap and thrown up, a sort of ‘pitch-and-toss.’” Hynny-pynny A peculiar game at marbles, sometimes called “Hyssy-pyssy,” played in some parts of Devon and Somerset. A hole of some extent was made in an uneven piece of ground, and the game was to shoot the marbles at some object beyond the hole without letting them tumble into it. The game occasionally commenced by a ceremony of no very delicate description, which sufficed to render the fallen marble still more ignominious.—Halliwell’s _Dictionary_.

Last night when we parted I left you broken-hearted, And on a green mountain, There stands a young man. Could you love him? Could you love him? Could you love him? Farewell!
