Black beauty young folks edition6/29/2023 I used to run with them, and had great fun we used to gallop all together round and round the field as hard as we could go. There were six young colts in the meadow besides me they were older than I was some were nearly as large as grown-up horses. When it was hot we used to stand by the pond in the shade of the trees, and when it was cold we had a nice warm shed near the grove.Īs soon as I was old enough to eat grass my mother used to go out to work in the daytime, and come back in the evening. In the daytime I ran by her side, and at night I lay down close by her. While I was young I lived upon my mother's milk, as I could not eat grass. Over the hedge on one side we looked into a plowed field, and on the other we looked over a gate at our master's house, which stood by the roadside at the top of the meadow was a grove of fir trees, and at the bottom a running brook overhung by a steep bank. Some shady trees leaned over it, and rushes and water-lilies grew at the deep end. The first place that I can well remember was a large pleasant meadow with a pond of clear water in it.
