Rush all to “scrummage,” strangely hight.

And now indeed a wondrous scene

Is acted on the village green;

For all who play, save three or four,

Rush madly on, at least a score

Of heads and shoulders quickly meet,

And twice as many eager feet.

Now many a toe meets many a shin

And leaves its mark on manly skin,

And elbows, seeking cosy cribs,
