She squandered in the purchase of a horse.
Folk songs
By Carryl, Guy Wetmore
"I am not in a hurry for a waggonette or
surrey,"
She said. "In fact, I much prefer to ride."
And spite of all premonishment, to everyone's
astonishment,
The gay old lady did so--and astride!
Now this was most periculous, but, what was
more ridiculous,
The horse she bought had pulled a car,
and so,
The lazy steed to cheer up, she'd a bell upon
her stirrup,
And rang it twice to make the creature go!
Artist: Carryl, Guy Wetmore
Year: 1850
