The cavalryman was galloping down the road, rushing
to catch up with his regiment. Suddenly his horse
stumbled and pitched him to the ground. In the dirt
with a broken leg, terrified of the approaching
enemy, the soldier called out, "All you saints in
Heaven, help me get up on my horse!"

Then, with superhuman effort, he leaped onto the
horse's back and fell off the other side.

Once again on the ground, he called to Heaven, "All
right, just half of you this time!"
