Ye-o1d Time scrapper.

When the old-time knights went forth
with poles, and pushed each other of
their horses, the ground, we learn, from
ancient scrolls, was often Uttered up
with corses; for when man is weight
ed down with half a ton Of cast-iron
raiment and lands upon his crowd his
life is apt to be the payment I've read
of forty armored knights who persisted
in a mornings fitting (of such the an
cient scriv'ners write-of such the bards
were always lilting). Oh, there was
changing then of steel, and there was
screech of bolt and casting. and you
might see the charger reel, and hear
its rider fortune blasting. And when
the vanquished hero sunk, SO plainly
dead that none could doubt it, a dray
would gather up the junk, and nothing
more was said about it. Oh, good old
days, when fighters fought, and in the
tourney played their capers! They
scorned to fill with bally rot the col
umns of the sporting papers.
