[Quotes A. Pope in an article condemning the card-game
"quadrille"]
See how the world its veterans rewards!
A youth of frolicks, an old age of cards;
Fair to no purpose, artful to no end,
Young without lovers, old without a friend;
A fop their passion, but a prize a sot,
Alive, ridiculous, and dead, forgot. 
   [signed] Philo-Innocentae. London
