The Book of Ballynoggin

Paperback (Forgotten Books )
Excerpt from The Book of Ballynoggin

His old one-eyed cob was quite aware of his master's state of mind and so took matters leisurely. He began with a satisfying brush of his forehead against the tufts of fern on a mossy dyke after which he made arabesques along the road, for the grasses, dandelions and great sorrels grew on either side; and, as every horse knows, casual snatches of such dusty salad are sweeter far than the formal abundance of mere stable corn or authorised pasture in dewy meads.
