He was back at Whitehall in May 1632; but during his short service he had been present at the Battle of Breitenfeld and in many sieges. His poetic talent was only one of many accomplishments, but it commended him especially to Charles I and his queen, Henrietta Maria . He says of himself ("A Sessions of the Poets") that he "prized black eyes or a lucky hit at bowls above all the trophies of wit." He was the best card-player and the best bowler at court. Aubrey says that he invented the game of cribbage , and relates that his sisters came weeping to the bowling green at Piccadilly to dissuade him from play, fearing that he would lose their portions.

We've discovered several of his lost works, poems that don't seem to appear in any literature books. Enjoy. Ode To The Cut I've been playing cribbage for thirty-two years, And one thing has always held true. Whenever I throw my opponent King-3, I'm certain to cut him a 2. Whenever I throw my opponent King-Jack, I can't help but cut him a Queen. And of course he just happens to throw King-Jack too, So the guy ends up getting sixteen. When I throw two 5's in my own crib, two points Is the most I can ever find. But if I threw those nickels to somebody else, He'd score at least twenty-nine. If I throw him a 7, the cut is an 8. If I throw him a 6, it's a 9. Why does it happen whenever it's his crib, And never when it's mine? I think when I first learned to play this game, The card gods must have laughed, And decided to give my opponents great cuts, While giving me the shaft.

    Extractions: He inherited the family wealth at 18 and pursued a military and ambassadorial career overseas which saw him knighted in 1830. He returned to the English court in 1632 where through his wealth and charm he was known as an elegant and popular gallant and gamester, credited with having invented the game of cribbage. Like the other cavalier poets he scorned the sonnet and the sentimentality of love poetry, writing lyrics with short lines displaying an urbane, graceful and somewhat cynical wit. He won dramatic acclaim with his performances of Aglaura but much of his work was published only after his death. A leader of the royalists he accompanied Charles I to defeat in Scotland in 1639, and was ridiculed for his troop's bright costumes and poor performance in battle. Two years later he was involved in a plot to rescue the Earl of Stafford from the Tower of London, and had to flee to Paris to escape arrest. Here he is rumoured to have committed suicide by poison within the year.

    Extractions: John Suckling was born in Norfolk and was educated at Trinity College, Cambridge and Gray's Inn. He was knighted in 1630 and after his return in 1632 from military exploits abroad lived in great style at court, dissipating his inheritance through gambling. According to John Aubrey, a contemporary chronicler, he was fond of bowling and cards and was the inventor of the game of cribbage. In 1639 he fought in the Bishops' Wars and two years later was forced to flee to France after his unsuccessful involvement in a plot to free the imprisoned Earl of Strafford was discovered. According to Aubrey, he committed suicide there by taking poison. His chief works are included in Fragmenta Aurea (1646) which comprises poems, plays, and letters. His The Wits or Sessions of the Poets , in which a number of contemporary writers compete for the Laureate, was presented before the king in 1637. Aglaura , a five-act play, appeared the following year, as did another play, The Goblins . Suckling was a classic example of the cavalier poet, whose life was brief, colourful, and eventful.

    Extractions: Suckling, Sir John Suckling, Sir John, , one of the English Cavalier poets . He was educated at Cambridge and Gray's Inn. An accomplished gallant, he was given to all the extravagances of the court of Charles I. He was a prolific lover, a sparkling wit, and an excessive gamester. The antiquary John Aubrey credits him with having invented the game of cribbage. Subjected to a humiliating defeat in Charles I's Scottish campaign of 1639, he was said to be more fit for the boudoir than the battlefield. An ardent royalist, he took part in the plot to rescue (1641) Thomas Wentworth, 1st earl of Strafford, from the Tower of London and to secure aid for Charles from the French. On the failure of these endeavors Suckling fled to France, where, it is conjectured, being unable to face poverty, he was driven to suicide. After his death appeared Fragmenta Aurea See his works ed. by T. Clayton and L. A. Beaurline (1971). The Columbia Electronic Encyclopedia,
