FABLES for the FANCIFUL.
No. I.
THE SPARROW AND THE GOLDFINCH.
One day, while in my garden-chair I sat,
Two plumy people joined in friendly chat.
The facts were these, as far as I could see,
A goldfinch perched upon my cherry-tree;
Soon after which, a lowly sparrow came,
Presuming he'd a right to do the same,
And having neared hie neighbour, inch by inch,
"Chip," said the sparrow, " Twittle," said the finch.
A pause ensued, as oft it does with us,
But soon the sparrow broke the silence thus ;
" I often wonder, sir, indeed I do,
v. by I'm viewed as so much less than you ;
In vain do I endeavour to eng tge,
I've never been considered worth a cage ;
But as for you, wherever you may fly,
Mankind regards you with a curious eye.
I'ray what's the reason you are valued so,
Is it y.:iir song, or what, I wish to know
" Nay," said the well-dressed goldfinch,
'Tis not my song, but my superior plume ;
'Tie trite, my frland, I've learned to sing a little,
But scarcely any more than twittle, twittle.'
You may depend, Sir, 'tis the way I'm decked—
...... Respectable appearance gains respect ;
Look at my golden wings, my scarlet cap,
You see I'm quite a gentlemanly chap;
If you could wear my coat you'd shortly know
To what extent appearances will go."
Mere ceased the entertaining conversation,
While I myself supplied
THE APPLIC AT I 3N.
Since personal appearance goes so far,
I'll more than ever prove what Moses are.
Moses and Son's famed Mart is just the place
To furnish fashions of superior grace ;
The fit of Moses, true to half-an-inch,
Will prove the language of the golden-finch.
4 Whoever may in at uses' dress be decked,
Will meet with honour and with due respect ;
And this assertion nobody will mock,
• On viewing Messrs. Moses' summer stock;
And thus concludes my unassuming fable,
'J Which I've improved as well as I was able.
