So what's the answer? If someone approaches on horseback, do you greet the horse, or the rider first? It depends upon who's holding the reins. If the rider has them well in hand, then you greet the rider first. Otherwise, you greet the horse first..because the rider is its captive and to speak with the rider uninterrupted, you must first negotiate the horse's attitudes and inclinations. |
