| A boy of about nineteen years patted the flank of a dark russet brown horse with a black mane and tail. |
| I patted down my frizzy brown hair, and attempted to find another, better shirt. |
| I patted his neck, which was damp with sweat, and loosened my hold on the reins. |
| He patted his chest where the medallion was hidden beneath his white lace-up shirt. |
| The crowd cheered wildly as she shimmied her way back in to the saddle and patted her horse for keeping his mind on the job at hand. |
| He flipped up the collar of his shirt and tied a Windsor knot, then patted the tie and his collar flat again. |
