Leap Candle

Leap candle or dancing the candle rush: a candle is placed on the floor in the middle of the room and girls lift their skirts in the form of breeches and dance or leap over the candle with this verse: "The tailor of Bisiter, he has but one eye. He cannot cut a pair of green Galligaskins if he were to die."
