The use of Cards in England was very common long before the period here alluded to, and it is only necessary to refer those who wish for ample information, to Mr. Singer's interesting inquiries on the subject. The following notices had however escaped his researches, though one of them is alluded to in a letter in the appendix to his work. In the 1 Edward IV. 1461, it was enacted, "that noo lord nor other personne of lower astate condicion or degree, whatsoever he be, suffer any Dicyng or pleiyng at _Cardes_ within his hous or elles where he may be let it, of any of his servauntes or other oute of the xij dayes of Cristmasse, and yf any presume to doo the contrarie at any tyme that he avoyde hym oute of his hous and service." It is then provided that, "noon Hosteler, Tavener, Vitailler, Artificer or Housholder or other use any such play or suffre to be used any such play in their houses or elleswhere upon payne of prisonement and other arbitrarie at the kynges wille."--_Rot. Parl._ vol. 5, p. 488. In the 3 and 4 Edw. IV. 1463-4, "_Cardes_ for pleiyng" were forbidden to be imported and sold in this Country, "upon peyne to forfeit theym."--_Ibid._ p. 507. In the 12th and 14th years of the same monarch, in a statute respecting the scarcity of bow staves it is said, "that the occupation of shotyng is thus discontynued and almost lefte, and the said Yomen in defaute of such Bowes, nowe usen unlawfull occupations as pleiyng at the _Cardes_, Dise plaiyng," &c.--_Ibid._ vol. vi. p. 156. The games at which Henry played appear to be Primero and Imperial. "Specimens of the court cards of a pack of the time of Henry VII. are given in Strutt's _Sports and Pastimes_, from the originals in the possession of Francis Douce, Esq."--M*.
