bouts-rimés

Literary game fashionable during the 17th and 18th centuries, particularly in France. One member of the party gave out certain rhyming words, and the rest of the players composed verses, using the given words as their rhyme endings.

The pastime was ridiculed by Joseph Addison in the Spectator number 60.
