7. The Knotted Handkerchief
Allegretto
Swing it here; swing it there; When it hits you Oh, be-ware!
Trå la la la la, la la la la la; Trå la la la la la la. la la la.
Setting. A large, compact circle, facing center, hands behind
backs; one player outside the ring with a knotted cord or
handkerchief in his hand.
Description. The player outside walks around the circle;
unnoticed he gives the handkerchief to some member of the circle; he
then takes his place with the others in ring. The player receiving the
handkerchief strikes his right-hand or left-hand neighbor on the back
with it. This player, pursued by the striker, instantly runs around
outside the circle, endeavoring to escape further rapping. He is safe
when he reaches his former place in the circle. The game begins
again, this time with the pursuer walking around the circle and giving
the knot.
Note. Players should not look behind to see who is receiving the handkerchief.
