THE PARROT.
A parrot, from the Spanish Main, Full young, and early-caged came o'er, With bright wings, to the bleak domain. Of Mulla's shore.
To spicy groves where he had won His plumage of resplendent hue-- His native fruits, and skies, and sun-- He bade adieu.
For these he changed the smoke of turf, A heathery land and misty sky; And turn'd on rocks and raging surf His golden eye.
But, petted, in our climate cold, He lived and chatter'd many a day; Until, with age, from green and gold His wings grew gray.
At last, when blind and seeming dumb, He scolded, laugh'd, and spoke no more, A Spanish stranger chanced to come To Mulla's shore.
He hail'd the bird in Spanish speech, The bird in Spanish speech replied; Flapt round his cage with joyous screech, Dropt down and died.
