The ready measure ring as fine

As Phoebus and the famous Nine

Were glowrin' owre my pen. staring over

My spavied Pegasus will limp, spavined

Till ance he's fairly het; once, hot

And then he'll hilch, and stilt, and jump, hobble, limp, jump

An' rin an unco fit: surprising spurt

But lest then the beast then

Should rue this hasty ride,

I'll light now, and dight now wipe
