come as I stand by her side and look at her clear brown 

 eye and shapely form. Surely these creatures are sent to 

 lead us in all that is noble and good, surely the chase is 

 given us for a high and noble purpose ; does it not bring all 

 our best qualities to the front — bravery, harmony, love and 

 good fellowship — its very existence rests on these. Pride 

 and exclusiveness are cast to the winds, the chase knows no 

 place for them ; no, the littlenesses of life are forgotten the 

 moment hounds begin to run, and every man breathes freely 

 in the broad atmosphere of the hunting field. For my part 

 when the narrow walls that divide us are cast down, and I 

 am sailing away over the open in the wake of the chiming 

 pack, I feel a freer and a better man.
