    The man bought a car

    It didnt take him very far

    It stopped in a tunnel

    And flew over a funnel

    His car started and drove into tar!

    There was a group of flying pigs

    They ate old rotten figs

    They fell down the sky groaning

    Highwayman Poem

    The wind was a torrent of darkness upon the gusty trees,

    The moon was a ghostly galleon tossed upon cloudy seas,

    The road was a ribbon of moonlight looping the purple moor,

    And the highwayman came riding--

    Riding--riding--

    The highwayman came riding, up to the old inn door.

    He'd a French cocked hat on his forehead, and a bunch of lace

    at his chin;

    He'd a coat of the claret velvet, and breeches of fine doe-skin.

    They fitted with never a wrinkle; his boots were up to his

    thigh!

    And he rode with a jeweled twinkle--

    His rapier hilt a-twinkle--

    His pistol butts a-twinkle, under the jeweled sky.

    Over the cobbles he clattered and clashed in the dark inn-

    yard,

    He tapped with his whip on the shutters, but all was lockedand barred,

    He whistled a tune to the window, and who should be waiting

    there

    But the landlord's black-eyed daughter--

    Bess, the landlord's daughter--

    Plaiting a dark red love-knot into her long black hair.

    Dark in the dark old inn-yard a stable-wicket creaked

    Where Tim, the ostler listened--his face was white and

    peaked--

    His eyes were hollows of madness, his hair like mouldy hay,

    But he loved the landlord's daughter--

    The landlord's black-eyed daughter;

    Dumb as a dog he listened, and he heard the robber say:

    "One kiss, my bonny sweetheart; I'm after a prize tonight,

    19/26

    But I shall be back with the yellow gold before the morning

    light.

    Yet if they press me sharply, and harry me through the day,Then look for me by moonlight,

    Watch for me by moonlight,

    I'll come to thee by moonlight, though hell should bar the

    way."

    He stood upright in the stirrups; he scarce could reach her

    hand,

    But she loosened her hair in the casement! His face burnt like

    a brand

    As the sweet black waves of perfume came tumbling o'er his

    breast,

    Then he kissed its waves in the moonlight

    (O sweet black waves in the moonlight!),

    And he tugged at his reins in the moonlight, and galloped awayto the west.

    He did not come in the dawning; he did not come at noon.

    And out of the tawny sunset, before the rise of the moon,

    When the road was a gypsy's ribbon over the purple moor,

    The redcoat troops came marching--

    Marching--marching--

    King George's men came marching, up to the old inn-door.

    They said no word to the landlord; they drank his ale instead,But they gagged his daughter and bound her to the foot of

    her narrow bed.

    Two of them knelt at her casement, with muskets by their

    side;

    There was Death at every window,

    And Hell at one dark window,

    For Bess could see, through her casement, the road that he

    would ride.

    They had bound her up at attention, with many a sniggering

    jest!

    They had tied a rifle beside her, with the barrel beneath her

    breast!

    "Now keep good watch!" and they kissed her. She heard thedead man say,

    "Look for me by moonlight,

    Watch for me by moonlight,

    I'll come to thee by moonlight, though Hell should bar the

    way."

    She twisted her hands behind her, but all the knots held good!

    She writhed her hands till her fingers were wet with sweat or

    blood!

    They stretched and strained in the darkness, and the hours

    crawled by like years,

    Till, on the stroke of midnight,

    Cold on the stroke of midnight,

    The tip of one finger touched it! The trigger at least washers!

  • 8/7/2019 I dedicate this book to anyone who reads this book

    22/26

    The tip of one finger touched it, she strove no more for the

    rest;

    Up, she stood up at attention, with the barrel beneath herbreast.

    She would not risk their hearing, she would not strive again,

    For the road lay bare in the moonlight,

    Blank and bare in the moonlight,

    And the blood in her veins, in the moonlight, throbbed to her

    love's refrain.

    Tlottlot, tlottlot! Had they heard it? The horse-hooves,

    ringing clear;

    Tlottlot, tlottlot, in the distance! Were they deaf that they

    did not hear?

    Down the ribbon of moonlight, over the brow of the hill,

    The highwayman came riding--

    Riding--riding--The redcoats looked to their priming! She stood up straight

    and still.

  • 8/7/2019 I dedicate this book to anyone who reads this book

    23/26

    Tlottlot, in the frosty silence! Tlottlot, in the echoing night!

    Nearer he came and nearer! Her face was like a light!

    Her eyes grew wide for a moment, she drew one last deepbreath,

    Then her finger moved in the moonlight--

    Her musket shattered the moonlight--

    Shattered her breast in the moonlight and warned him--with

    her death.

    He turned, he spurred to the West; he did not know who

    stood

    Bowed, with her head o'er the casement, drenched in her own

    red blood!

    Not till the dawn did he hear it, and his face grew grey to

    hear

    How Bess, the landlord's daughter,

    The landlord's black-eyed daughter,Had watched for her love in the moonlight, and died in the

    darkness there.

    Back, he spurred like a madman, shrieking a curse to the sky,

    With the white road smoking behind him and his rapier

    brandished high!Blood-red were his spurs in the golden noon, wine-red was his

    velvet coat

    When they shot him down in the highway,

    Down like a dog in the highway,

    And he lay in his blood in the highway, with the bunch of lace

    at his throat.

    And still on a winter's night, they say, when the wind is in the

    trees,

    When the moon is a ghostly galleon tossed upon cloudy seas,

    When the road is a gypsy's ribbon looping the purple moor,

    The highwayman comes riding--

    Riding--riding--

    The highwayman comes riding, up to the old inn-door.

    Over the cobbles he clatters and clangs in the dark inn-yard,

    ~SUMMMARY~

    The poem is mainly about him being in love.There are many conflicts in this poem. The poem

    has many sad events. The poem is very dramatic.

    I enjoyed it.

    At the beginning the highwayman came up to

    the old inn. He came to see his love, Bess. Their

    love was secret. No one knew at first. But then

    Tom the Ostler overheard their conversation. He

    heard that the highway man was in love with Bess.

    Tim also loved Bess. Then one day theredcoats came to the old inn.Holding Bess as a

    hostage. That night was when the highway man

    was coming back. But Bess risked her lfe to save

    her love. But the next morning the highway man

    heard what happened. He charged towards the innbut he was shot down.
