The Parrot is a chattering bird, he talks a great deal, yet knows not what he says; and is therefore not unlike some silly boys, who prate without thinking, and learn their lesson without looking at their book.
THE CUCKOW.
THE Cuckow tells a merry tale,
Upon the hill and in the vale.
There’s the pretty Cuckow! This good-natured bird comes a long journey once every year to see all his friends, and sing them a song. And after he has obliged them with his company about three months, he takes his leave, and returns to his own country again.
