 He that gets the ace of clubs,

May expect a thousand snubs

From his wife—But girls again,

By this card will rule and reign.

Deuce of Clubs,

Note, this deuce doth signify,

That thou a Bachelor will die.

And she who the same doth take,

Never will her friends forsake,

Tray of Clubs.

You who now the tray have drawn,

On wicked harlots soon will fawn.

But she who doth obtain this tray,

To such acts will answer nay.

Four of Clubs.

By this four you'll plainly see,

Four brats will be laid to thee.

She who gets the same will wed

Two rich husbands, both well bred.

Five of Clubs.

By this five we see that thou

Wilt join unto a filthy sow.

But this drawn by virgins,

they Shall have husbands fine and gay.

Six of Clubs.

By this six you’ll wed, we know,

One that you will crow.

Maids who get the same will be

Blest with husbands kind and free.

Seven of Clubs.

Thou that hast the seven drawn,

Must your breeches put in-pawn.
