Feed me, water and care for me,
and when the days work is done, provide me with shelter, a clean
dry bed and a stall wide enough for me to lie down in comfort.
Always be kind to me. Talk to me.
Your voice often means as much to me as the reins. Pet me
sometimes, that I may serve you the more gladly and learn to love
you.
Do not jerk the reins, and do not
whip me when going uphill. Never strike, beat or kick me when I do
not understand what you want, but give me a chance to understand
you.
Watch me; and if I fail to do your
bidding, see if something is wrong with my harness or
feet.
I cannot tell you when I am
thirsty so give me clean, cool water often. I cannot tell you in
words when I am sick, so watch me, that by signs you may know my
condition.
Give me all possible shelter from
the hot sun, and put a blanket on me, not when I am working, but
when standing in the cold. Never put a frosty bit in my mouth; first
warm it by holding it a moment in your hands.
I try to carry you and your
burdens without a murmur, and wait patiently for you long hours of
the day or night. Without the power to choose my shoes or path, I
sometimes fall on the hard pavements which I have often prayed might
be of such a nature as to give me a safe and sure
footing.
Remember that I must be ready at
any moment to lose my life in your service.
And finally, O Master, when my
useful strength is gone, do not turn me out to starve or freeze, or
sell me to some cruel owner to be slowly tortured or starved to
death; but do thou, my Master, take my life in the kindest way. And
your God will reward you here and hereafter. You will not consider
me irreverent if I ask this in the name of HIM, who was born in a
stable.
