"Play’d golf as well…at local links. We call’d him Ass of Clubs, methinks.
(Play’d soccer, too, a Melbourne side.*)" "Was Ass of Hearts his name…?" Dee cried.
"Nope. Him we dubb’d..." Dum answer’d back "...The Ass of Spades: his butt burn'd black."
* Perhaps a reference to the Melbourne City FC, known until recently as Melbourne
Heart. (Gosh! Another Suit.)
