 By this club eight, tho' whig or quaker, Thy fate must be a cuckold maker; Ye maids that draw the same are born To hold both fools and fops in scorn.

By this brave nine, upon my life, I soon shall wed a wealthy wife; She that shall draw the same shall have One that is both fool and knave.

Now for this number half-a-score, Shows that thou wilt be wretched poor; Maids that can draw this number still, Shall have great joy and wealth at will.

Here comes the king of clubs, and shows Thou hast some friends as well as foes; Maids that do draw this court card shall Have very few, or none at all.

If the queen of clubs be that thou hast, Thou shall be with great honour grac'd; And women if the same they find, Will have things unto their own mind.

See how the surly knave appears, Pray take care of both your ears; Women whene'er the same they see, Will be what they oft use to be.
