Playwright
What say you to a game of cards?
But, sir, how much better you are!
A game of chess, mayhap is bought?
Sir, you are witty, and beat you I'll not!
Then perhaps a turn about the hall?
Surely not, for I will fall!
How's your skill with arrow and bow?
I should tell you to lay low!
A sword, then, is your take?
Only, sir, if it is fake!
Horseback riding-of this do you fear?
Oh most definitely, for the horse will rear!
Is there nothing you can do?
Why, I'll play hearts with you!
What is this if I may ask?
Beware, for it's no easy task!
I'm up for the challenge, what entails?
Reciprocation, sir, for the one who fails!
Deal-I say, when do we start?
Never, sir, for you've stolen my heart!
