"Is everything arranged?" he asked under his breath. "Everything," she replied. "No trouble with our henchmen?" "A little ... but they are submissive now." "What is the arrangement?" "Persuade young Lambert to take a hand at primero ... Endicott will do the rest."
She ate frequently and for a long time; but her food was always cut in pieces as small as if they were for a singing bird. She could not forget her country, and her manners were always remarkably Spanish. She was very fond of play; she played basset, reversis, ombre, and sometimes a little primero; but she never won because she did not know how to play.
She had been in the habit of riding with one of the Primero girls, and old Primero would accompany them, or perhaps a brother Primero, or occasionally her own father.
"Para humillar la serpiente Que con su mortal veneno Dejo todo el mundo lleno De su aliento pestilente Que marco a todo viviente Con el sello mas fatal Sois Maria concebida Sin pecado original." "Como Ester la mas amada Del mas generoso Asuero Gracia recibes primero Que estes del crimen manchada Pues para no ser contada En la indignacion real Sois Maria concebida Sin pecado original."
This information was food and raiment to the Ranger. The señora of Agua Dulce sent a servant to secrete the Ranger's horses in a near-by pasture, and with saddles hidden inside the house, before the people of the ranch or the sun arose, five Rangers were sleeping under the roof of the Casa primero.

The Mexican Senator, fascinated by the riches and honours thus promised him, grasped the hand of the bold conspirator, at the same time crying out with enthusiasm, "Viva! Viva Carlos el Primero!" "Good!" rejoined Don Estevan, with a smile.
"The game doth not appear to be vastly complicated," assented Lambert lightly. "I have played primero on a system for years ..." quoth Lord Walterton sententiously, "but to-night ... hic ... by Gad! ... I cannot make the system work right ... hic!" But already Segrave was dealing again. Lambert staked more coolly now.
Julia Primero asked me to stay with them when you first talked of not going up, and I should not in the least object to reminding her, only it should be done at once. Their house in Queen's Gate is very large, and I know they've a room.
The driver descended with the gait of a conquering hero, and turned his glances in the direction of a cottage close by. An old man on crutches, a blooming matron with rosary beads at her waist, and a nut-brown maid with laughing eyes stood under the porch, embowered in tamarisk and laurel-rose. The driver strode over to them, crying out triumphantly: "El primero! Lo! I am the first."
It being cold in the great red saloon, we sat, for cards, in the little yellow room, where a huge fire blazed. We were at primero, the whole party of us. The stakes were small, but the fire and fury with which the bishop and Madame Riano played against each other was something remarkable. Charges and counter charges, sarcasm, ridicule and innuendo were freely bandied between them.
