    From out that little nest shall rise,
      When woods are warm, a living song,
    A music mix’t with light that flies
      Thro’ flutt’ring shades the leaves among.

    O little bird, take everything
      And build thy nest without rebuff,
    And when thy nest is builded, sing! 
      For who can praise thy song enough?
