	[Note:—The children march in single tile imitating the winding course of a river. They should glide lightly, yet with a springing, joyful step. After the second stanza they continue their march, softly humming the melody of the song once or twice.

Or two rows of children represent the banks of the river between which a third row wends its way, etc.]

	[Note:—The first stanza accompanies a simple march in single file. With the second stanza, the children form couples and march in double file; at the word, "now we arch," they stop, the two files face each other, and, uniting hands, form a long arch-way, through which the last couple leads the way in single file. With the third stanza they join hands for the ring which they complete with the third line. At the words, " Ho, ho, etc., the children drop hands and turn round once, clapping hands.] 95
