First Line: There was a rumpus in the pack
Last Line: Of diamonds and hearts.
Alternate Author Name(s): Father Tabb

There was a rumpus in the Pack,
Whereof the King and Queen and Jack
Were playing knavish parts.
On Club and Spade was put the blame;
But these asserted 'twas a game
Of Diamonds and Hearts.
