The shoveler with his brode bek;

The dotterell, that folyshe pek

The partryche, the quayle,

The plover, with us to wayle,

The lusty chaunting nightingale;

The popinjay to tell her tale

That looketh oft in the glasse,

Shall read the gospel at Masse.

The mavis with her whystle

Shall read the epistle,
