Poet Analysis

First Line: THE HORSES OF THE SEA
Last Line: TOSS AND TURN OVER.
Subject(s): ANIMALS; HORSES; SEA HORSES;
The horses of the sea
Rear a foaming crest,
But the horses of the land
Serve us the best.

The horses of the land
Munch corn and clover,
While the foaming sea-horses
Toss and turn over.
