# There are very few horses worth noting in the Shakespearean canon. There are plenty of horses, of course -- the plays are littered with them. But not many are singled out for attention. One recalls Richard III's memorably unavailable horse (V.iv.7), Richard II's much-mourned "roan Barbary" (V.v.78-94) -- Bolingbroke helped himself to Richard's favourite horse as well as his crown -- and the gift to Timon of "Four milk-white horses, trapp'd in silver" (I.ii.179-80).
