If you can keep your pawns when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming you
If you trust your rooks when all men doubt you
But make allowance for their rooks too
And open but not make opening your master
And fork yet not make forks your aim
If you can meet with Mate or Disaster
And treat those two imposters just the same
If you can swap the unforgiving bishop
For knight that has the distance run
Yours is the board and all thats in it
And which is more youll be a chessplayer my son
