“I Love My Love With an A”
To play this game it is best for the players to arrange themselves in a half-circle round the room. Then one begins: “I love my love with an ‘A,’ because she is affectionate; I hate her with an ‘A,’ because she is artful. Her name is Alice, she comes from Aberdeen, and I gave her an apricot.” The next player says: “I love my love with a ‘B,’ because she is bonnie; I hate her with a ‘B,’ because she is boastful. Her name is Bertha, she comes from Bath, and I gave her a book.” The next player takes “C,” and the next “D,” and so on through all the letters of the alphabet.
