A DOZEN ROYALS

A dozen royals gathered round,
Amused by two who only clowned;
Each King therein had servants ten,
Though none of them could be called men.
The least of these sometimes might
Defeat his King in a fight.
A weapon stout, a priceless jewel,
The rhythm of life, a farmer's tool.

Answer:

A deck of playing cards

NOTES:
A weapon stout: Club
A priceless jewel: Diamond
The rhythm of life: Heart
A farmer's tool: Spade

The least of the servants: Ace
