A GENTLEMAN once bought a horse of a country-dealer. The bargain
concluded, and the money paid, the gentleman said, Now, my friend, I
have bought your horse, what are his faults?--I know of no faults that
he has, except two, replied the man; and one is, that he is hard to
catch.--Oh! never mind that, said the buyer, I will contrive to
catch him at any time, I will engage; but what is the other?--Ah, sir!
that is the worst, answered the fellow; he is good for nothing when
you have caught him.
