 He that draws this four shall make , A faithful dove for conscience' sake; But if it's drawn by womankind; They will prove false and that you'll find.

Note, that this five of hearts declares, Thou shalt well manage great affairs; But if it's drawn by fair women, They sure will love all sorts of men.

The six of hearts surely foretells, Thou shalt be where great honour dwells; If it falls on the other side, It then betokens scorn and pride.

Now this old seven, I'll maintain, Shows that thou hast not lov'd in vain, Thou shalt obtain the golden prize; But with maids 'tis otherwise

Having now drawn the number eight, Shows thou art servile born to wait; But if a woman draws the same, She shall mount on the wings of fame.

By this long nine be well assured, The love sick pains must be endur'd; But the damsel that draws this nine, Soon in wedlock hands shall join.
