The tails of both hung down behind,
Their shoes were on their feet.

Give me another horse! Bind up my wounds!

High crest, short ears, straight legs and passing strong,
Thin mane, thick tail, broad buttock, tender hide:
Look what a horse should have he did not lack,
Save a proud rider on so proud a back.

Gamaun is a dainty steed,
Strong, black, and of a noble breed,
Full of fire, and full of bone,

His mane is like a river flowing,
And his eyes like embers glowing
In the darkness of the night,
And his pace as swift as light.
