With 3 roof OF emerald green.

Bot my birds Gang not so sSestly.
As their parents on The tree.
And in vain they daily struggled.
Ever Striving 10 be free.
Then pondsred Ger The meaning.
Reasoned on i. like sage,
Why ny birds were nos conlenied
In their brightly gilded cage.
And mehougil heard an answer,

You forget vour care and sadness,
When amid the buslliDg ,hroOg.
1t is true that YOU have fed US.
That your hand ,s ever kind.
But remember whS, | tell you,
