I ll tell you, Covered by that dirty hide Was the finest pal I know of With a heart of gold inside. He was only old Mestizo, With his blood of mongrel breed, Yet he proved himself a hero, And the truest friend in need.
62 WESTERN BREEZES OR It was in the long dry season, When the sun beats scorching down, And the hot winds sweep the pampas 3 Parching everything around.
That I rode from Guay to Piura, Across that sun-baked plain, And as a mule attendant I d Mestizo in my train. He would work whi...le I was watching, But as soon as I turned round, He d get that native cliicha And he d pour it steady down. And although I kicked and cursed him It was all of little use, In his sordid way of living He d got hardened to abuse. Till one day in desperation, I gave him twenty full, Then with my muzzling lasso Tied him to the hindmost mule.
From early dawn to sundown, As he staggered in our rear, We could hear him crying, begging, Pleading for that native beer.
3 Wide stretching plains.
BALLADS OF A GRINGO 63 But not a drop we gave him, Though his tongue grew twice its size, And the tortures of a madd ning thirst Glared from his bloodshot eyes.
