And lean and lank was the traveller's frame That sat on that horse's crup : 'Twas long I ween since the wight had seen The ghost of a bite or sup.
THE SHEPHERD'S VENGEANCE 87 " Oh ! give me food ! " to the shepherd old With plaintive cry he cried ; A mildewed crust or a pint o' dust 1 Or a mutton cutlet fried.
" In sooth in evil case am I, Fatigue and hunger too Have played the deuce with my gastric juice, It's * got no work to do. ' " I've come o'er ridges of burning sand That gasp for the coo...ling rain, Where the orb of day with his blinding ray Glares down on the salt-bush plain.
" O'er steaming valley, lagoon, and marsh Where the sun strikes down 'till, phew !
The very eels in the water feels A foretaste of a stew.
" I hungered long till my wasting form Was a hideous sight to view ; But fit on a settler's fence to sit To scare the cockatoo.
" My hair grew rank, and my eyeballs sank 'Till wasted, withered, and thin The ends and points of my jarring joints Stuck out through my parched up skin.
