SONG.
CHIRRUP, chirp, chirp, chirp twitter,
Warble, flutter, and fly away;
Dicky birds, chickey birds—quick, ye bird,
Shut it up, cut it up, die away.
Maud is going to sing!
Maud with the voice like lute strings,
(To which the sole species of string
I know of that rhymes is boot-strings).
Still, you may stop, if you please;
