"The term "Tarot," or "Tarocchi," is applied to a pack of 78
cards, consisting of four suits of 14 cards each (there being one
more court card than in the ordinary packs-the Cavalier,
Knight, or Horseman), and 22 symbolical picture-cards
answering for trumps. These latter are numbered from 1 to 21
inclusive, the 22nd card being marked Zero, 0. The designs of
these trumps are extremely singular, among them being such
representations as Death, the Devil, the Last Judgment, &c. S. L. MacGregor Mathers"
