Scrap

Reading edition

Scrap relative to Golf occurs in a very rare work entitled Westminster Drollery, 12mo, 1671, p. 28.

A Song called— "And to each pretty lass We will give a green gown."

Thus all our life long we are frolick and gay, And instead of Court revels we merrily play At Trap, at Rules, and at Barly-break run, At Goff and at Foot-Ball; and when we have done These innocent sports, we'll laugh and lie down, And to each pretty lass We will give a green gown.

N.B.—The above was copied from a book containing many curious Scraps relating to Golfing, Archery, and Curling, belonging to James Maidment, Esq., advocate.
