A list of all pages that have property "Text"Text" is a predefined property that represents text of arbitrary length and is provided by <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="https://www.semantic-mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Special_properties">Semantic MediaWiki</a>." with value "&lt;p&gt;John Newbery's &lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;A Little Pretty Pocket-Book&lt;/span&gt;, published in England, contains a wood-cut illustration showing boys playing "base-ball" and a rhymed description of the game:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;"The ball once struck off,/Away flies the boy/To the next destined post/And then home with joy."&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;This is held to be the first appearance of the term "base-ball" in print. Other pages are devoted to stool-ball, trap-ball, and tip-cat [per David Block, page 179], as well as cricket. Block finds that this book has the first use of the word "base-ball."&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;".
