Provide each player with pencil and paper. The first thing to write
on the paper is an adjective which applies to a man. The paper is then
folded over and passed to the right. This time each one writes the
name of a man (either present or absent), folds the paper so the next
one can't see what is written, and passes it on to the right. This is
done each time and the order of names is as follows after the first
two, then an adjective which applies to a lady, then a lady's name;
next, where they met; what he said; then, what she said; the
consequence; and last of all, what the world said.

After all have finished writing "what the world said," the papers are
passed to the right, opened, and read aloud.

Thus:

Handsome
Mr. ----
(met) Pretty
Miss
(at) The Fair
(he said) Have you heard the news?
(she said) I intend to go home.
(the consequence was) They never spoke again.
(the world said) "As you like it."
