Note 169 — Chapter III · THE PROGRESS OF CARD-PLAYING.
Reading edition
The two following are of later date but in the same strain. 'A Murnival of Knaves: or Whiggism plainly display'd, and if not grown shameless, burlesqu'd out of countenance, a Poem. 1683.' 'Win at first, lose at last; or the Game of Cards which were shuffled by President Bradshaw, cut by Col. Hewson the Cobler, and played by Oliver Cromwell and Ireton till the Restoration of Charles II. 1707'—A Murnival, at the game of Gleek, was all the four aces, kings, queens, or knaves.
