[00:19.34]The neighing of the horses in the moonlight woke him up
[00:23.96]There was a line of ice across his cup
[00:28.03]Except for the wind in the corn
[00:29.92]The world was perfectly still
[00:32.32]The moon hung over the window sill

[00:44.88]Ride on black mule
[00:58.60]Just in four men on horses came riding up
[01:02.78]They dragged him out into the clearing
