"Carpe Sinn." 53 



buy a horse, however, that turns his toes out to any 

 noticeable extent ; such are almost sure to strike 

 themselves when tired, or in deep ground, if they 

 do not do so at other times. 



Lastly, it is better to buy a good horse dear, if he 

 suits you, than to purchase a bad or indifferent one 

 for little money, for the latter cannot he cheap, and if 

 the former will satisfactorily answer your require- 

 ments the first additional outlay will soon be repaid 

 you — barring the accidents which all horse flesh is 

 heir to — by the good services that he will render. 



CARPE DIEM, 



ARPE DIEM "—whilst we may 

 Let us love, or sport, or play ; 

 Let us, not forgetting others. 

 Grasp each pleasant hour, my brothers ! 

 Night succeedeth day. 



'' Carpe Diem " — whilst we can. 

 In our short allotted span. 

 Let us taste the sweets around us. 

 Troubles may e'er long comfound us ! 



Brief's the life of man.
