I has clipping sticker weeds in the pasture and I heard the thunder of hooves. Over the crest of the hill black Arago came flying, prancing, nostrils flared and blowing out snorting breaths. Tail flying like a banner, neck arched, head high with his huge antelope eyes. He came to see what it was. He saw it was me, then turned back and went the way he came. I was reminded of something in the Koran about creation of the horse
God took a handful of the south wind and said I bid you condense.
God said "I have made thee unlike any other.
All the treasures of the earth lie between thine eyes.
Thou shalt cast mine enemies between thy hooves,
but thou shalt carry my friends on thy back.
This shall be the seat from which prayers rise unto me.
Thou shall find happiness all over the earth,
and thou shall be favored above all other creatures,
for to thee shall accrue the love of the master of the earth.
Thou shall fly without wings and conquer without sword."
