On his departed gray.

Huggins now betook him to the Wells—the Hunt was o'er—and many a joke is told—

How Huggins stood when he was rubb'd

By help and ostler kind,

And when they cleaned the clay before,

How "worse remain'd behind."

And one, how he had found a horse

Adrift—a goodly gray!

And kindly rode the nag, for fear

The nag should go astray.
