Hesden had only wondered what the effect of these things would be upon "the South;" meaning by "the South" that regnant class to which his family belonged a part of which, by a queer synecdoche, stood for the whole. His love for his old battle-steed, and his curious interest in its new possessor, had led him to consider the experiment at Red Wing with some care.
We are this moment about to engage in a business transaction of great importance; in fact, if you must know the worst, we are going to buy a bonnet!" Mrs. Sheldon entered into the shopping expedition with a zest which reminded Jack of the Scriptural battle-steed which sayeth "Ha-ha" to the trumpets.
"Joy to the fair! thy knight behold, Return'd from yonder land of gold; No wealth he brings, nor wealth can need, Save his good arms and battle-steed His spurs, to dash against a foe, His lance and sword to lay him low; Such all the trophies of his toil, Such and the hope of Tekla's smile!
It seemed to me a curious thing, when I saw Oki ponies for the first time, that Sasaki Takatsuna's battle-steed not less famous in Japanese story than the horse Kyrat in the ballads of Kurroglou is declared by the islanders to have been a native of Oki. And they have a tradition that it once swam from Oki to Mionoseki. Almost every district and town in Japan has its meibutsu or its kembutsu.
Witness those possessed of large fortunes, which they have it in their power to bequeath, and over whose dwellings of mortality vigilant relations hover like the carrion-fowl above the dying battle-steed.
Choose from my pastures a battle-steed, and ride forth to win for thyself a name and fame among the sons of men." Then Siegfried ran down the steep side of the mountain to the grassy dell where the horses were feeding. But the beasts were all so fair and strong, that he knew not which to choose. While he paused, uncertain what to do, a strange man stood before him.
