A circle is formed by joining hands. They dance round and sing. Sometimes at Rosehearty two play the game by the one taking hold of the other’s left hand with her right. Sally go Round the Moon Sally go round the moon, Sally go round the stars; Sally go round the moon On a Sunday afternoon. —Deptford, Kent (Miss E. Chase). Three or more girls take hold of hands, forming a ring; as they spin round they sing the lines. They then reverse and run round in the other direction with an _O!_ or repeat over again. This game is mentioned in the _Church Reformer_, by the Rev. S. D. Headlam, as one being played at Hoxton, but no account of how the game is played is given. Sally Water [Music] —Yorkshire (Mr. H.
