FLYING DUTCHMAN,
THE WINNER OF THE DERBY, 1849.
Well done, my lad I thou art a noble horse,
And well host won the day on Epsom's course.
Come let me give thy neck a friendly pat;
I will not harm thee, rest assured of that.
In vain did Honeycomb and Old Dan Tuck
Do what they could to leave thee in the ruck.
These didst thou beat, while Vatican and Nunny, •
Beside thy noted self looked rather funny.
The Crowner thou hest crowned, and Vanguard, too,
And preyed how little Chantrey's legs could do.
The chattering of The Chatterer thou hest hushed,
And even past brave Hotspur host thou rushed.
Old Fox and Tadmor, Goodwood and The Knout,
Thy nimble shanks have beaten out-and-out ;
While o'er the land thy triumphs are rehearsed
In these few words—" The Flying Dutchman First."
Ah ! gallant horse ! the way the Derby closes,
Has furnished'me a thought or two for Moies.
First, like thyself, have Moses ever been
Whatever may have come to intervene
First in the quality of their attire,
And first in style—a style which all admire.
The Trowsers, Coats, and Vests, of M. and Son
Have gained the odds of a successful run ;
And all who view the articles will find
That competition's efforts lag behind.
Thus, Flying Dutchman, have I done my duty,
And now a word to those who win the booty :
To such successful winners I would say,
Improve the winnings of the Derby Day.
And if they ask how this may best be done,
I'd simply point to Messrs. M. and Son.
