(I found another verse of this beautiful poem!)

The Arab’s Farewell to His Steed

My Beautiful! My beautiful!
that standeth meekly by
With thy proudly-arch’d and glossy neck,
and dark and fiery eye,
Fret not to roam the desert now,
with all thy winged speed…

The rider casts his heart over the fence,
the horse jumps in pursuit of it.
