ONE HUNDRED OUTDOOR GAMES
In this game the players form a circle with clasped hands. To be
"bull" is the position of honour. The bull is supposed to be locked in
by various locks of brass, iron, lead, steel, and so on. He endeavours
to break through the ring by catching some of the players off their
guard. He will then run until captured, and the one who catches him
has the position of bull for the next game. In playing, it is
customary for the bull to engage one pair of players in conversation
by asking some question such as "What is your lock made of?" At the
answer, brass, lead, etc., he will then make a sudden rush at some
other part of the ring and try to break through.
