Green, of Rolleston, whose noted old mare had just skimmed over the water like a swallow on a summer's evening. ' It 's Middleton Biddulph/ says one. ' Pardon me/ cries Mr. Middleton Biddulph ; * Middleton Biddulph is here, and here he means to be ! ' * Only Dick Christian/ 2 answers Lord Forester, 'and it's nothing new to him. ' * But he '11 be drowned/ exclaims Lord Kinnaird. * I shouldn't wonder/ observes Mr. William Coke. But the pace is too good to inquire. The fox does his best to escape ...: he threads hedge-rows, tries the out-buildings of a farm-house, and once turns so short as nearly to run his foil, but the perfection of the thing the hounds turn shorter than he does, as much as to say die you shall. The pace has been awful for the last twenty minutes. Three horses are blown to a standstill, and few are going at their ease. * Out upon this great car- case of mine ! no horse that was ever foaled can live under it at this pace, and over this country/ says one of the best welter-weights, as he stands over his four-hundred-guinea chestnut, then rising from the ground after giving him a heavy fall, his tail nearly erect in the air, his nostrils violently distended, and his eye almost fixed.
