“He sang of boundless food at his command,
That he would barter in exchange for love;
And sang of freshets overhung with boughs
So dense in leaves they offered safe retreat
When danger down in drenching torrents fell.
To keep her fledgelings plump and satisfied,
He promised labour while the day endured,
When fondness kept her prisoner on the nest!”
That he would barter in exchange for love;
And sang of freshets overhung with boughs
So dense in leaves they offered safe retreat
When danger down in drenching torrents fell.
To keep her fledgelings plump and satisfied,
He promised labour while the day endured,
When fondness kept her prisoner on the nest!”
