of those
places "built without walls." The soldiers, the king's bodyguard, are
summoned, and orders are given to them to suppress the insurrection and
capture the little rebels. As each one is taken prisoner the soldiers
ask--

"Will you surrender? Oh, will you surrender
To the King of the Barbarines?"

During the struggle reinforcements come up from the rebel camp and try
to beat off the king's soldiers, exclaiming--

"We won't surrender, we won't surrender
To the King of the Barbarines."

"We'll make you surrender, we'll make you surrender
To the King of the Barbarines."

"You can't make us surrender, you can't make us surrender
To the King of the Barbarines."

"We'll go to the King, we'll go to the King,
To the King of the Barbarines."

"You can go to the King, you can go to the King,
To the King of the Barbarines."

The rebels now build an imaginary castle by joining hands. The king's
soldiers surround the place, and after a skirmish break it down.

"We'll break down your castle, we'll break down your castle
For the King of the Barbarines."

A LANCASHIRE ROUND GAME.

Two rows of lassies and lads face each other; the boys, hand in hand,
move backwards and forwards towards the girls, saying--

"I've got gold, and I've got silver,
I've got copper, and I've got brass,
I've got all the world can give me,
All I want is a nice young lass."

"Fly to the east, fly to the west,
Fly to the one you love the best."

In the scramble which takes place the young lass of each one's choice is
seized. A ring is formed, and a rollicking dance takes places to the
characteristic chorus of--

"Fol th' riddle, I do, I do, I do;
Fol th' riddle, I do, I do, dey."
