Whats Trunaps .

There are 80 many cards TO play,
So many ways to choose,
In Love and Politics and War
10 forwarding our views.
With ladies fair, and statesmen wise,
Or men Of lesser bumps,
Before We lead our strongest suit
It's we'll to know what's trumps.
Once, worshiping at bcauty's shrine
knelt IN 6ondage sweet,
Aud breathcd my VOWS with eagcrness,
And offered at hor feet
Nv soul, well stored with Cupid's wealth
4 love ccmented lump,
A hing Of diamonds won the trick;
Ny HEART was not trump.
Raving to see my rival win
Upon single RUB.
A. be played the DEUcE With the.
allowed with CLUB.
Two days within . station house
Z Rejecting on my sin,
] found, a. others may have done,
Clubs very seldom win.
GrnXn Xiao by sad experience, -
ceased 10 DEAL with maids;
sHUvYLxD youthful fOlllcs Oft;
And turned up Jack Of Spades,
Yet still l find es dust Is scarce
And smaller grow the Jumps,
That though the Spades All honest card,
II is not always trunps.
But ia Q world Of outside show,
Where Tuommon rules the throug;
To saao the little jolts of life,
And smoothly pass along
To llnd an antid0te for care,
And stGfn misfortune's thumps,
One card Il very surc to VIM
DIAMONDS are always truMps!
