The acting of this version is the same as that of The Jolly Miller. The third variant is evidently an imitation of the song, John Brown. Green Grow the Leaves (2) [Music] --Northants (R. S. Baker). Green grow the leaves on the hawthorn tree, Green grow the leaves on the hawthorn tree, We jangle and we wrangle and we never can agree, But the tenor of our song goes merrily, merrily, merrily, The tenor of our song goes merrily. --R. S. Baker (_Northants Notes and Queries_, ii. 161).
=_ Ace. The house, or home. King. A benefactor. _=R.=_ He will not be able to do you much good, although he means well. Queen. Everything that is lovely in woman. _=R.=_ You will have to wait awhile for the realization of your hopes.
When twenty is bid the cards in the widow must remain untouched. _=Playing.=_ The successful bidder has the lead for the first trick. The general rules for following suit, etc., are the same as in ordinary Euchre. The bidder takes in all the tricks won by himself and his partners, and one of the adversaries should gather for that side. If a player on either side _=revokes=_, the adversaries score the number bid, and the hand is abandoned. _=Scoring.=_ If the bidder is successful in his undertaking, he and his partners, if any, are credited by the scorer with the number of points bid, but no more. Should a player bid five, and his side take seven, it would count them only five points.
