SUNDRIES. 
1.—HORSE VERY SICK. 
“ Name, oh doctor ! name your fee ! 
Ask—I’ll pay whate’er it be ! 
Skill like yours, I know, comes high, 
Only do not let him die! 
Get him out of this and I 
The cash will pay you instantly. 
II.— HORSE CONVALESCENT. 
“Cut, oh doctor ! cut that fee ! 
Cut, or not a dime from me ! 
I am not a millionaire, 
But I’ll do whatever’s square; 
Only make a bill that’s fair, 
And I’ll settle presently. 
III.— HORSE WELL. 
“ Book, oh doctor ! book your fee ! 
Charge—I’ll pay it futurely, 
When the crops all by are laid, 
When every other bill is paid, 
(Or when of loss again afraid) 
I’ll pay it-grudgingly.”
