Luyện nghe bài hát Deck Of Cards

During the African campaign, a bunch of soldier boys had
been on a long hike and they arrived in a little town Casino. The
next morning being Sunday, several of the boys went to Church. A
commanded the boys in Church and after the had read the prayer,
the text was taken up next. Those of the boys who had a prayer book
them out, but this one boy had a deck of cards, and so he spread
out. The Sergeant saw the cards and said, "Soldier, put away those
cards." After the was over, the soldier was taken prisoner and
before the Provost Marshall.

The Marshall said, "Sergeant, why have you brought man
here?" "For playing in church, Sir." "And what have you to say for
yourself, son?" "Much, Sir," replied the soldier. The said, "I
so, for if not I shall punish you more than any man was ever
punished." The soldier said, "Sir, I have been on the for about six
days. I have neither a Bible nor a prayer book, but I hope to
you, Sir, the purity of my intentions." And with that, the boy
his story:

"You see Sir, when I look at the Ace, it reminds me that
is but one God. And the Deuce reminds me that the Bible is into
two parts, the Old and the New Testaments. I see the Trey, I think
of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost. And I see the Four, I
think of the four Evangelists who the Gospel; there was Matthew,
Mark, Luke and John. And when I see the Five, it reminds me of the
wise virgins who their lamps; there were ten of them: five were
wise and were saved, five were foolish and were out. When I see the
Six, it reminds me that in six days, God made great heaven and
earth. When I see the Seven, it reminds me on the seventh day, God
from His great work. And when I see the Eight, I think of the
eight righteous persons God saved when He this earth; there was
Noah, his wife, sons and their wives. And when I see the Nine, I
think of the our Savior cleansed, and nine out of the ten didn't
even thank Him. I see the Ten, I think of the Ten Commandments God
down to Moses on a table of stone. When I see the King, it
reminds me there is but one King of Heaven, God Almighty. And when I
see the Queen, I of the Blessed Virgin Mary, who is Queen of
Heaven. And the Jack or Knave is the Devil. When I count the
of spots on a deck of cards, I find 365, the number of in a year.
There are 52 cards, the number of weeks in a year. are 4 suits, the
number of in a month. There are 12 picture cards, the number of
months in a year. There are 13 tricks, the number of in a quarter.
So you see, Sir, my pack of serves me as a Bible, an Almanac and a
Book."

"And friends, the story is true. I know, I was soldier."
