Two children stand back to back, with their arms locked. One stoops as low as he can, supporting the other on his back, and says, “Weigh the butter;” he rises, and the second stoops in his turn with “Weigh the cheese.” The first repeats with “Weigh the old woman;” and it ends by the second with “Down to her knees.”—_Folk-lore Journal_, v. 58. The players turn their backs to each other, and link their arms together behind. One player then bends forward, and lifts the other off his [her] feet. He rises up, and the other bends forward and lifts him up. Thus the two go on bending and rising, and lifting each other alternately, and keep repeating— Weigh butter, weigh cheese, Weigh a pun (pound) o’ can’le grease. —Keith (Rev. W. Gregor). Mr. Northall (_English Folk Rhymes_) gives this game with the words as— A bag o’ malt, a bag o’ salt, Ten tens a hundred. This game is described as played in the same way in Antrim and Down (Patterson’s _Glossary_), and also by Jamieson in Roxburgh. See “Way-Zaltin.” When I was a Young Girl [Music] —Platt School, nr.
