Who galloped him hard to the meet,

Who thought that a horse was a kind of machine,

And whose hands were as bad as his seat.

That day the hounds had a good run, sir,

They turned a fox out of the gorse;

That cockney, he galloped for miles on the road,

Which is terrible hard on a horse.

The Cavalier loved to go hunting,

He loved to dash over the grass;

In the days of his youth he’d have been at the front,
