The Fourth Game, 1705.
France to the last Stake brought, & Spain the same,But Germany revok'd and spoil'd the Game;
125
He did not play at all upon the Square.
England chang'd Sides, and took the Dutch again,
Whilst Portugal play single hand with Spain.
But after many Deals, and mighty cross
Between them both, there little was but lost.
Now England deals about for the last Stake,
And had a hand that made Great Monsieur quake.
But when the Sett to a Conclusion came,
Holland lost Dealing, and quite baulk'd the Game.
