We play at _Chesse_ on a _Chesse-board_, 6. where only art beareth the sway. Ludimus _Abaculis_ in _Abaco_, 6. ubi sola ars regnat. The most ingenious Game is the Game of _Chesse_, 7. wherein as it were two Armies fight together in Battel.

Heretofore _Runners_, 5. run betwixt _Rails_, 6. to the _Goal_, 7. Olim decurrebant _Cursores_, 5. inter _Cancellos_, 6. ad _Metam_, 7. and he that toucheth it first receiveth the _Prize_, 8. from _him that gave the prize_, 9. & qui primum contingebat eam, accipiebat _Brabeum_, (_præmium_), 8. à _Brabeuta_, 9. At this day _Tilting_ (or the quintain) is used, Hodie _Hastiludia_ habentur, (where a _Hoop_, 11. is struck at with a _Truncheon_, 10.) instead of _Horse-races_, which are grown out of use. (ubi _Circulus_, 11. petitur _Lancea_, 10.) loco _Equiriorum_, quæ abierunt in desuetudinem. CXXXVI. Boys Sport. Ludi Pueriles.
