[The following verses are said by Aubrey to have been sung in his time by the girls of Oxfordshire in a sport called Leap Candle, which is now obsolete. See Thoms's 'Anecdotes and Traditions,' p. 96.]

The tailor of Bicester,

He has but one eye;

He cannot cut a pair of green galagaskins,

If he were to try.

DCII.

Dick and Tom, Will and John,

Brought me from Nottingham.
