    One night a party of men were playing cards in a neighbour's house. The night slipped on them and at 12 o'clock they decided to go home.

    One night a party of men were playing cards in a neighbour's house. The night slipped on them and at 12 o'clock they decided to go home. One of the men left the joker fall under the table. He bent down to pick it up and what did he see but the devil's foot under the table. At that moment he heard a scream and his face was turned to the back of his poll.
