ooting in the West, To learn and to experimentWhich one of them shot best; And here you seeThe heroes three,As gay and freeAs they can be. The mighty bison was their pelf, By curious instinct ledTo hide and to conceal itselfBy standing on its head.

Said Harry, They are like indeed To heaps of new-mown hayWith lightning-rods on each, to leadThe thunder-bolts away. But where, Dick cried, Do those abideWho cut and driedThese fields so wide ?
