For us there were no bounds!

We were riven away by a newer day,

And no longer rolled on the ground.

Thus point by point, and “pass” by “pass,”

Onward thru cycles strange,

We “sevened,” “elevened,” “nined,” and “fived,”

And followed the chain of change;

’Till there came a time in Gambledom

’Midst many a weal and woe—

They changed the name of this plucky game
