Ode to the Horse "Where in this wide world can a man find nobility without pride, friendship without envy or beauty without vanity? Here: where grace is laced with muscle and strength by gentleness confined. He serves without servility; he has fought without enmity. There is nothing so powerful, nothing less violent; there is nothing so quick, nothing less patient. England's past has been bourne on his back. All our history is his industry. We are his heirs; he our inheritance. The Horse" --written by British poet, Ronald Duncan
