A word is chosen by the company which is likely to have a good many other words rhyming with it.

The first player then begins by silently acting some word that will rhyme with the one chosen; as for instance, should the selected word be flow, the first actor might imitate an archer, and pretend to be shooting with a bow and arrow, thus representing the word bow, or he might with an imaginary scythe cut the long grass (mow), or pretend to be on the water in a boat, and make use of imaginary oars (row). As each word is acted it should be guessed by the spectators before the next one is attempted.
