THE ARAB. 



About two centuries since three 

 famous Arabian Sires were imported, 

 and their names deserve to be known 

 by every horseman, seeing that most 

 of the Thoroughbreds and Hackneys 

 of to-day have descended from one or 

 other of those illustrious sires. 



The names of those horses are, Byerly 

 Turk, Godolphin Arabian, and Darley 

 Arabian. 



The debt of gratitude due to these 

 importers of the past, by this and other 

 countries, cannot be painted in words, 

 but their memory will ever be with us 

 so long as the beautiful equine speci- 

 mens of the race-course and road exist.
