'by came a Highlandman at the gallop on a tolerably good horse, but which had never known the ornaments of iron or leather. We scorned to be out-galloped by a Highlandman, so off we started, whip and spur. My companions, though seemingly gaily mounted, fell sadly astern; but my oold mare, Jenny Geddes, one of the Rosinate family, strained past the Highlandman in spite of all his efforts with the hair halter; just as I was passing him, Donal wheeled his horse, as if to cross before me to mar my progress, when down came his horse, and threw his rider's breekless a--e in a clipt hedge; and down came Jenny Geddes over all, and my Bardship between her and the Highlandman's horse. Jenny Geddes trode over me with such cautious reverence that matters were not so bad as might well have been expected; so I came off with a few cuts and bruises, and a thorough resolution to be a pattern of sobriety of the future.' --Burns
