All the boys and girls should stand in a group, with the exception
of one girl, and to her is given a bunch of daisies. She is known as
“Daisy Girl.” A tree is selected as a place of safety and the other
girls count ten, allowing ten seconds for the count. During the
counting, Daisy Girl runs wherever she pleases, but the moment ten is
spoken, the boys and girls may race after her. The idea is to tag her
while the flowers are in her hand. If she is tagged the girl must then
throw the daisies as if they were a ball to the boy or girl tagging
her. If they are caught the game proceeds as before, by reversing the
players, but if the flowers are not caught, Daisy Girl may try again.
She may also demand another chance, if, when fearing she would be
tagged, she throws the daisies away, and catches them again before any
of the other players. When the game is repeated it commences regularly
from the beginning, the players taking the same position as at the
start.
