SPANISH RIDER
Things we got to know about in the course of time and that actually occurred
There once lived a tall and full-figured lady in the south of Spain, who had inherited a ranch from her father, a rich haziendiero. The lady was about 26, no one knew exactly, she was very tall and had a very full figure, that made all the men crazy. She also had a very particular passion: she liked to flounder especially small and weak horses, that would break down because of her great weight. What she enjoyed most, was when the little creatures could not lift up her weight any more and had to suffer her strikes helplessly. Because of the heat she was always very lightly dressed, and it goes without saying that she always used razor sharp spurs and a very effective whip.
One of her grooms reported; there was always a small horse lying under her in the dirt, desperately trying to get up, which of course he did not manage. She was sitting heavily on the little horse, sneering.
"Well, get up, go on!" SMACK, the switch hit his dripping wet coat - he winced with pain. "Does that hurt you?" she asked sneeringly. SMACK, SMACK, the whip whizzed through the air, cutting through his delicate coat (sometimes she would play her games with young fillies).
"You're not saying anything, just wait, your mistress is going to help you get up."
SLAP - she thrusted her spurs into his flesh! "Mummy does not like it, if you've already given up!"
SMACK-whip into the snout!
Then the little one would struggle along a few more yards on his belly, and the Senora would make herself extra heavy.
"I think you do not want to understand me. You have to carry me, this is too slow for me!" After each sentence there would be a couple more lashes, for which the young lady always lifted her hand up very high, so that she would hear loud slaps. This slapping must have aroused her, the groom told us. He is now working for an Austrian riding-stable, where we met him.
She would only leave off from the poor creatures when the only reaction she got from them were winces. The groom could not tell us how many animals did not survive this treatment, as the life of an animal did not count down there - it is worthless, on the ranch they had 500 horses.
He told us that his boss preferably wore suspenders and stockings while he was rolling his eyes with relish, and when he talked about her bust he was wetting his lips and made a motion with both his hands to illustrate what he was talking about. Floundering horses just happened to be her hobby, he said, shrugging his shoulders - simply like somebody else would bite his nails - he did not give it too much thought, though, but he did not grudge her the fun, even though he did not really understand it, as he admitted.
