BABETTE
Two Entire Packs of Cards
RULES
- The foundations follow suit.
- Vacancies in the garden are not to be refilled.
- Each row of cards in the garden blocks the preceding one, but on the removal of cards in the lower rows those above them are released.
PLAY
Deal out eight cards in a horizontal line. This commences what is called the "garden." When the first row is complete, take from it any foundations and place them in the allotted spaces above, and also other suitable cards, but do not refill vacancies (Rule II).
The foundations consist of four aces and four kings of different suits, ascending and descending in the usual sequences (Rule I).
Note.—The tableau is so arranged that one of the king foundations has already descended to queen, and one of the ace foundations has ascended to three. The vacant spaces in the garden show from whence cards have been removed, and not replaced; but there would probably be many more rows in the garden than are shown on the tableau.
