See him beyond the hedgerow,
that lone, loquacious stallion,
what's whickers abound
and abide in their binds.
He stands still,
eclipsed by the glimmer
that peaks through
the leaves of the stark
oaken shade amidst
the misty copse of
someplace.
O! How fair,
the wandering mare
that so happens whereupon
his supping in thought.
The stallion speaks
with a mouthful of bromus,
which he wrought from the soil
that filled the hole
of a deadwood bole,
supine upon the moss,
uprooted.
His heart had begun to wrench,
as his tail went carried away
and his mounting hoof—
a furious commotion
along the graze—
was so the glory of his day.
This whisper then ran down
the lady's sensual mane,
and ev'ry sinew tightened
to enlighten his
stare.
t'was there
among the light that
there'd ne'er be a doubt
in that fertile thicket,
now seemingly bare . . .
and that
alabaster stallion then
went wandering about,
his canter apace with
his ebony mare . . .
