Old moder Phœbe, how happy you be
When you sit under the Jinniper tree,
oh the Jinniper tree so sweet.
Take this old hat an’ keep your head warm,
Three an’ four kisses will do you no harm,
It will do a great good fe you.
Here the girl inside the ring takes a hat or cap and after several feints puts it on somebody’s head, and that person has then to take her place in the ring.
