Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Hoyle Abridged: Or Short Rules for Short Memories at the Game of Whist; With the Laws of the Game, &C. Adapted Either for the Head or Pocket
Your reign is unbounded. While the dominions of the lesser monarchs of the earth extend not beyond the bounda ries of certain rivers, mountains, or ideal lines, your empire is as wide as the known limits of the globe: it is likewise more absolute than that of any human despot, as it subjugates the reason, and carries captive the mind.
