The Man from Snowy River (2)

The Man from Snowy River (2)

There was Harrison, who made his pile when Pardon won
  the cup,
The old man with his hair as white as snow;
But few could ride beside him when his blood was fairly
  up ー
He would go wherever horse and man could go.
And Clancy of the Overflow came down to lend a hand,
No　better　horseman　ever　held　the　reins；
For never horse could throw him while the saddle-girths
  would stand ー
He learnt to ride while droving on the plains.

And one was there, a stripling on a small and weedy beast;
He was something like a racehorse undersized,
With a touch of Timor pony ー three parts thoroughbred at
  least ー
And such as are by mountain horsemen prized.
