The Message Poem

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
The Message Poem
(From Heine)
Up, dear laddie, saddle quick,
And spring upon the leather!
Away post haste o’er fell and waste
With whip and spur together!
And when you win to Duncan’s kin
Draw one of them aside
And shortly say, “Which daughter may
We welcome as the bride?”
And if he says, “It is the dark,”
Then quickly bring the mare,
But if he says, “It is the blonde,”
Then you have time to spare;
But buy from off the saddler man
The stoutest cord you see,
Ride at your ease and say no word,
But bring it back to me.
