That land of fear and drought | A |
And dust and gravel | B |
He got a touch of sun | C |
And rested at the run | C |
Until his cure was done | C |
And he could travel | B |
When spring had decked the plain | D |
He flitted off again | E |
As flit the swallows | F |
And from that western land | A |
When many months were spanned | A |
A letter came to hand | A |
Which read as follows | F |
- | |
quot Dear Sir I take my pen | E |
In hopes that all their men | E |
And you are hearty | A |
You think that I've forgot | A |
Your kindness Mr Scott | A |
Oh no dear sir I'm not | A |
That sort of party | A |
- | |
quot You sometimes bet I know | G |
Well now you'll have a show | G |
The 'books' to frighten | C |
Up here at Wingadee | A |
Young Billy Fife and me | A |
We're training Strife and he | A |
Is a all right un | C |
- | |
quot Just now we're running byes | F |
But sir first time he tries | F |
I'll send you word of | H |
And running 'on the crook' | I |
Their measures we have took | I |
It is the deadest hook | I |
You ever heard of | H |
- | |
quot So when we lets him go | I |
Why then I'll let you know | I |
And you can have a show | I |
To put a mite on | J |
Now sir my leave I'll take | I |
Yours truly William Blake | I |
P S Make no mistake | I |
He's a all right un | C |

By next week's Riverine | C |
I saw my friend had been | C |
A bit too cunning | I |
I read quot The racehorse Strife | K |
And jockey William Fife | K |
Disqualified for life | K |
Suspicious running quot | A |
- | |
But though they spoilt his game | L |
I reckon all the same | L |
I fairly ought to claim | L |
My friend a white un | C |
For though he wasn't straight | A |
His deeds would indicate | A |
His heart at any rate | A |
Was quot a all right un quot | A |
