IN WHIST.
No matter what your partner does Remain urbane and b;anl], Don't even eay his game is one You cannot understand The more mispluys that hi: may make, The nime you'll smile and say, You often make a like mistake, Did it but yesterday. If adversaiy should revoke, Don't claim the penalty. “ A little slip like this is one That i very day we see.” And should he merit it 01 not, Pay compliments on skill ; Don't miss this opportunity Of gaining his goodwill. The others will not like it If you win the game each day, go, when gaining, praise your partner, ’Tis his scientific play. Showing joy or disappoinment, Yon must manage lo resist, If you'd have the others love you Aud be popular at whist.
