No dulcet notes I e'er could claim;
So worthless I, you may obtain
Two Sparrows for a farthing.
Besides, I ne'er was form'd to sing,
And so must soar on humbler wing,
Since nature saw it fitter;
But yet my feeble powers I'll try,
And sound my chatt'ring notes on high,
For I am sure you'll not deny
To hear my simple twitter.
