When no one will bid any higher, the player who has made the best offer names the game he wishes to play, with or without a partner. _=Games.=_ The rank of the various games, the amounts bid on them, and the payments made for them, are as follows:-- Simple in suit, 2; in colour, 4. Forcée or Solo in suit, 4; in colour, 8. Tout in Suit, 16; in colour, 32. _=Simple Game=_ is to play for five tricks with a partner holding a designated ace.

Whether old or young, handsome or ugly, good or bad, she was his wife till the next anniversary of this custom (Guthrie s _Scottish Customs_, p. 168). Another old wedding superstition is alluded to by Longfellow:-- While the bride with roguish eyes, Sporting with them, now escapes and cries, Those who catch me, married verily this year will be. See Joggle Along. Jolly Rover [Music] --Derbyshire (Mrs. Harley). Here comes one jolly rover, jolly rover, jolly rover, Here comes one jolly rover, jolly rover, jolly rover, A roving all day. And what do you rove for, rove for, rove for? And what do you rove for? Lily white and shining. I rove for my pleasure, my pleasure, my pleasure, I rove for my pleasure, my pleasure, my pleasure, Lily white and shining.
