He tossed me up on his wild white steed, That ramped, and stamped and tore at the bit, JAnd leapt up behind me, and off we sped, Skimming the waves at a glorious speed. {The horse kicked his heels and tossed his mane. And away he bolted, lightning-quick, [The wind gave a laugh, a rollicking laugh, And dug in his heels ancj pulled at the bit.
