TWO BULLS

WITH ORIGINAL ENGRAVINGS

NEW YORK: Daniel Burgess & Co.

THE STORY OF THE TWO BULLS.

In former times, my story tells, There lived one Deacon R., And not the worst man in the world, Nor best was he, by far.

His fields were rich, his acres broad, And cattle were his pride; Oxen and sheep, and horses, too, And what you please, beside.

His brindle cow, the highest prize Won at the county fair, For taper limbs and rounded form, And short and shining hair.

Old Bonny Gray, a noble steed Of sure, majestic pace, Before the deacon purchased him, Was famous at a race.

This story he would sometimes tell, And at the end would say, "Alas! such sports are far from right; But Bonny won the day!"

Still, more than all, the spotted bull Had filled the deacon's mind; His back so straight, his breast so broad, So perfect of his kind.
