you how to play Knifey, and Hole-and-taw, and Horneys
and Robbers.

"Leap-frog is the best one to start with, so I'll teach
it to you at once. Let you bend down like this, Breedeen,
and you bend down like that a good distance away, Seu-
mas. Now I jump over Breedeen's back, and then I
run and jump over Seumaseen's back like this, and then
I run ahead again and I bend down. Now, Breedeen,
you jump over your brother, and then you jump over me,
and run a good bit on and bend down again. Now, Seu-
mas, it's your turn; you jump over me and then over
your sister, and then you run on and bend down again
and I jump."

"This is a fine game, sir," said Seumas.

"It is, a vic vig,--keep in your head," said the Lepre-
caun. "That's a good jump, you couldn't beat that jump,
Seumas."

"I can jump better than Brigid already," replied Seu-
mas, "and I'll jump as well as you do when I get more
practice--keep in your head, sir."

Almost without noticing it they had passed through
the edge of the wood, and were playing into a rough field
which was cumbered with big, grey rocks. It was the
very last field in sight, and behind it the rough, heather-
packed mountain sloped distantly away to the skyline.
