ii.
A
player
may
make
a
declaration
immediately
after
his
partner
has
taken
a
trick,
and
may
inquire
of
his
partner
if
he
has
anything
to
declare,
before
drawing.
iii.
Declarations
must
be
made
by
each
player
separately,
as
in
two-handed
bézique.
iv.
The
above
descriptions
will
serve
to
sufficiently
acquaint
the
reader
with
the
rules
and
modes
of
play
adopted
in
this
excellent
game.
Bézique
is
said
to
be
of
Swedish
origin,
and
to
have
been
introduced
to
English
players
through
the
medium
of
some
Indian
officers
who
had
learned
it
of
a
Scandinavian
comrade.
Variations
in
the
play
occur
in
different
companies.
These,
however,
having
been
indicated
above,
need
not
be
more
particularly
noted.

Napoleon.
This
popular
game
is
played
by
four,
five,
or
six
persons
with
a
full
pack
of
cards,
which
take
the
same
value
as
in
Whist.
The
object
of
the
game
is
to
make
tricks,
which
are
paid
to
or
received
from
the
dealer
at
a
fixed
rate,
a
penny
or
more
a
trick,
as
previously
arranged.
The
deal
being
decided
in
the
usual
way,
the
pack
is
cut
and
five
cards
are
dealt
one
at
a
time
to
each
player,
beginning
at
the
left.
After
every
round
the
deal
passes.
Each
player
looks
at
his
cards,
the
one
to
the
left
of
the
dealer
being
the
first
to
declare.
When
he
thinks
he
can
make
two
or
three
tricks
he
says,
"I
go
two,"
or
"I
go
three."
The
next
may
perhaps
think
he
can
make
four
tricks;
and
if
the
fourth
believes
he
can
do
better
he
declares
Napoleon,
and
undertakes
to
win
the
whole
five
tricks.
The
players
declare
or
pass
in
the
order
in
which
they
sit;
and
a
declaration
once
made
cannot
be
recalled.
The
game
then,
proceeds.
The
first
card
played
is
the
trump
suit;
and
to
win
the
trick,
a
higher
card
than
that
led
in
each
suit
must
be
played.
The
winner
of
the
first
trick
leads
for
the
second,
and
so
on
till
each
of
the
five
tricks
are
played
out.
Each
player
must
follow
suit,
but
he
is
not
bound
to
head
the
trick
or
to
trump.
