A circle of little girls hold each other firmly by the hand. One in the centre touches one pair of hands, saying,"Here I bake ;"another, saying,"Here I brew;"another, saying,"Here I make my wedding-cake ;"another, saying,"Here I mean to break through."As she says the last phrase, she pushes hard to separate their hands. If she succeed, the one whose hand gave way takes her place : if not, she keeps going the rounds till she can break through. Sometimes they exact a forfeit from any one who tries three times without success, but it is usually played without forfeits.
