THE DREAM AND THE CUP
Here my fancy finished; so,
   Dreaming, I could clearly see
      How he galloped. This was no
         Spectacle of misery.
            There I gazed, upon my pet
               Leading ev'ry other horse.
                  I can see the picture yet.
                     Later I was at the course.
                  I can see the picture yet:
               Leading ev'ry other horse.
            There I gazed upon my pet
         Spectacle of misery!
      How he galloped! This was no
   Dreaming! I could clearly see
Here, my fancy finished - so!
