  • (noun) - (1) A sort of game . . . between lovers.

    --Robert Nares' Glossary of the Works of English Authors, 1859

    (2) At draw-gloves we'l play,

    And prethee, let's lay

    A wager, and let it be this:

    Who first to the summe

    Of twenty shall come

    Shall have for his winning a kisse.

    --Robert Herrick's Hesperides, 1648
