THREE COLTS EXERCISING IN A SIX-ACRE
Reading edition
Three colts exercising in a six-acre, A hilly sweep of unfenced grass over the road. What a picture they make against the skyline! Necks stretched, hocks moving royally, tails flying; Farm-lads up, and they crouching low on their withers. I have a journey to go— A lawyer to see, and a paper to sign in the Tontine— But I slacken my pace to watch them.
