Perhaps some English tourist out in Palestine may find

My broken-hearted waler with a wooden plough behind.

No; I think I’d better shoot him and tell a little lie:—

“He floundered in a wombat hole and then lay down to die.”

May be I’ll get court-martialled; but I’m damned if I’m inclined

To go back to Australia and leave my horse behind.

Trooper Bluegum.
