I'LL TRY.
Two Robin Redbreasts built their nest Within a hollow tree; The hen hat quietly at homo The cock sang merrily, And all the little young ones said, "Wee wee, wee wee, weo wee!" One day (the sun was warm and bright, And golden in the sky). Cock Robin said : " My little dears, 'Tis time you learnt to fly!" And all the little voting ones said, I'll try! I'll try! I'll try!" I know a child—and who she is I'll tell you by and bye— When mother says " Do this," or " that." She says " What for?" and " Why?" She'd be a nicer shild by far If she would say "I'll fry!"
