‘BIRDS IN THEIR LITTLE NESTS AGREE .’
But If you believe this little tale, just come with me. I know a nest not far from here, A b >wered nest, with woodlet near, Where You shall see. A happy pair, a year ago, They nested there. Nor care nor strife conld gain a lease, To enter in and banish peace, Wbere all was fair. A month ago and all was changed ; Bnt why the fuss ? The mother-bird her mother brought, And father-bird new quarters sought—’T was ever thus.
