The Way Of Croquet



We started to play
A game of croquet
One day did sweet Willie and I;
     I let her go first
     And played at my worst,
To win it I never did try.

     She beat me by half,
     Then loudly did laugh,
And said ‘twere dull playing with me;
     So we tried it once more
     When I made a good score,
And she was as vexed as could be.
