Nature

Early News

by Anna M. Pratt fl. 1890s

From An American Anthology, 1787–1900, ed. Edmund Clarence Stedman (1900)

Nature

The sparrow told it to the robin,
The robin told it to the wren,
Who passed it on, with sweet remark,
To thrush, and bobolink, and lark,
The news that dawn had come again.
