'THE GREATEST JOCKEY' 335 



The greatest jockey of all time was Fred., 



In pluck and patience, skill, and fiery force — 

 With lifting hands and legs and coolest head — • 



With 'Archer up' 'twas Centaur more than horse. 

 No more at Epsom frantic hosts will pour 



Their plaudits forth as he returns to weigh ; 

 No more vast crowds upon the classic moor 



The hero cheer of many a ' Leger ' day. 



We'll talk in years to come, with saddened smile, 

 (Treading Newmarket Heath — and Archer's Town), 



Of how he flashed along the Rowley Mile, 

 And glory gained upon the chalky down.
