Answer:
In the third stanza, Kipling uses the first line to speak of winning and taking chances, knowing that all men will be tempted at some point to make a foolish decision: "If you can make one heap of all your winnings / and risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss ..." The game "pitch-and-toss" is a game of chance, so we know he's speaking of betting all your winnings on a gamble. However, what's important in this stanza is his advice for how a person should behave once you make the mistake of gambling all of your winnings and losing. You should "start again at your beginnings," meaning make a fresh start. You should also "never breathe a word about your loss," meaning never speak of the loss because not complaining about adversity shows strength of character and true humility.
