Hindmost

Devil take the hindmost.

The devil takes the hindmost.

Fareweel, my rhyme-compoſing billie! / Your native ſoil was right ill-willie; / But may ye flouriſh like a lily, / Now bonilie! / I'll toaſt ye in my hindmoſt gillie, / Tho' owre the Sea!

The foremost chain-man goes forward and the hindmost one follows, and stands with his hand above the first pin, and moves the foremost assistant to the right or left, till he is exactly on the line; when he is ordered to stick in his second pin.
