W. Drummond.

Behold! and look away your low despair,

See the light tenants of the barren air:

To them no stores nor granaries belong,

Nought but the woodland and the pleasing song;

Yet your kind Heavenly Father bends his eye

On the least wing that flits along the sky;

He hears their gay and their distressful call,

And with unsparing bounty fills them all.
