She is large and strong, and although my master weighs 200 pounds, she likes to carry him as he is kind to her, rides her well, and never pricks her sides with the spurs, nor hits her with the whip, nor hurts her mouth by bearing too heavily on the reins. He has always been kind to her and fed her well, and that is why she is strong and sound and as lively as when she was young, although she has done a greal deal of hard work in both harness and saddle.
