Is hardly safe to step out of doors!

Just fancy a horse that comes full pelt,

But as quiet as if he was 'shod with felt,'

Till he rushes against you with all his force,

And then I needn't describe the course,

While he kicks you about without remorse,

How awkward it is to be groom'd by a horse!

Or a bullock comes, as mad as King Lear,

And you never dream that the brute is near,

Till he pokes his horn right into your ear,
