His horse was of an iron grey ; (A prancing steed he rode that day,) Not of the bold virginian breed.
Nor yet remote from Quixote's steed.
This chief was of the bullet mould ; To meet the conflict, firm and bold.
His coat was patch'd, his boots new soal'd.
Ham stufE'd his maw : Two pounds of powder fiU'd his horn, His pantaloons were old and worn, A cap and hat his head adorn — The chapeau bras.
With vengeance heated, long in store.
He sallied forth, a man of war ; And all that meet him, pray t...ake care Of rusty pikes.
He had no helmet for the head.
But death and ruin near him tread, And slaughter, in a suit of red.
That deadly strikes.
24 370 POEMS OF PHILIP FRENEAU [1809 A blanket from his shoulders hung, Three dollars in his pockets rung, And to his thigh a faulchion clung.
That made us quake : A veteran in the fighting trade !
The owner of so keen a blade !
Do not provoke him, man or maid.
For mercy's sake.
O could you but one furlong ride With such a faulchion at your side.
Your bosom would for glory beat And show Napoleon all complete !
