Philip is nowise literary.
In politics his words are chary.
I'm glad to say he never chatters
About his neigh bors' private matters.
He heeds not news from east or west.
One theme commands HIS MENTAL BEST,
And this one maxim he enforces:
"BLEST IS THE MAN who drives fine horses.
He MEANT THE BLISS his own should be
And brought his steeds by land and sea,
Lodged THEM IN STABLES large and fair
And spends his hours of leisure there,
Where each ones pedigree is shown,
Although he never learned his own.
His early friends will have their say,
AS one remarked but yesterday:
"Phil 'arns his money, anyhow.
He's bossin in a stable now.
low perhaps he's had some losses
An got job O. tendin hosses."

AS wet as fish, as dry as bone,
AS live as bird, as dead as stone,
AS plump as partridge, as poor as rat,
AS strong as horse, as weak as cat,

AS tight as a drum, as free as the air,
AS heavy as lead, as light as feather,
AS steady as time, as uncertain as weather.

drawing.
Lay match No. ON the table, and upon
it, at right angles to it, the ends of Nos. 2
and 3, and across these lay 4. Now, with
the thumb and finger OF the left hand lift
No. 1 and with the right hand slide in
Nos and 6, passing under 1 and over 4.
From the way in which the timbers are
interlaced the whole will form a portion of
an arc, it's center rising slightly from the
table.
