The man, half-slipping sidewise from the saddle, so as to fall clear if the mare toppled backward, threw his weight to the front and alongside her neck. This overcame the dangerous teetering balance, and the mare struck the ground on her feet again. But there was no let-up.
"She can't keep this up long, anyway; that's a comfort," muttered Johnny sleepily. Couldn't she? All next morning that flood came down without the let-up of even a single moment.
