So looked the poor forlorn old beast ; 38 How the Old Horse Won His coat was rough, his tail was bare, The gray was sprinkled in his hair ; Sportsmen and jockeys knew him not, And yet they say he once could trot Among the fleetest of the town.
Till something cracked and broke him down, — The steed's, the statesman's, common lot !
" And are we then so soon forgot ? " Ah me ! I doubt if one of you Has ever heard the name " Old Blue," Whose fame through all this region rung In those old days when ...I was young !
" Bring forth the horse ! " Alas ! he showed Not like the one Mazeppa rode ; 39 How the Old Horse Won Scant - maned, sharp - backed, and shaky- kneed, The wreck of what was once a steed.
Lips thin, eyes hollow, stiff in joints ; Yet not without his knowing points.
The sexton laughing in his sleeve, As if 't were all a make-believe.
Led forth the horse, and as he laughed WW) How the Old Horse Won Unhitched the breeching from a shaft, Unclasped the rusty belt beneath, Drew forth the snaffle from his teeth.
