Superstition #211

Pull off the “petals” of a daisy one by one, naming a boy (or a girl as the case may be) at each one, thus, “Jenny, Fanny, Jenny, Fanny,” etc. The one named with the last petal is your sweetheart. The seeds which remain on the back of your hand after taking them up show the number of your children.
