The names of false dice:   A bale of bard cinque deuces   A bale of flat cinque deuces   A bale of flat sice aces   A bale of bard cater traes   A bale of flat cater traes   A bale of fulhams   A bale of light graniers   A bale of langrets contrary to the ventage   A bale of gordes, with as many highmen as lowmen,    for passage   A bale of demies   A bale of long dice for even and odd   A bale of bristles   A bale of direct contraries.
