“Beshrew the beast!” Dame Perkins said,

“How Farmer John will stare

To see me coming back so soon

Upon his old grey mare!”

As though of this opinion, too,

The wayward steed turned round,

And with a slow and stately step

Remeasured o’er the ground.

But as the day was rather warm,

And as the hills were steep,

In private she made up her mind

To jog on in her sleep.

“Plague take thee, Sal!” Dame Perkins said,

“If at this stumbling gait

A dozen miles I am to ride,

I’ll get to Worcester late.
