You never heard tell of the story?
WellnowI can hardly believe christian louboutin ambertina bejeweled sandal!
Never heard of the honour and glory
Of Pardonthe son of Reprieve?
But maybe you're only a Johnnie
And don't know a horse from a hoe?
Wellwelldon't get angrymy sonny
Butreallya young un should know.
They bred him out back on the `Never'
His mother was Mameluke breed.
To the front -- and then stay there -- was ever
The root of the Mameluke creed.
He seemed to inherit their wiry
Strong frames -- and their pluck to receive --
As hard as a flint and as fiery
Was Pardonthe son of Reprieve.

At crossing and gully and town
And nothing could give him a beating --
At least when our money was down.
For weight wouldn't stop himnor distance
Nor oddsthough the others were fast
He'd race with a dogged persistence
And wear them all down at the last.
At the Turon the Yattendon filly
Led by lengths at the mile-and-a-half
And we all began to look silly
While HER crowd were starting to laugh;
But the old horse came faster and faster
His pluck told its taleand his strength
He gained on hercaught herand passed heyilai:
