Harrison A Game. / *r - I Used to Shoot Bird*. (From Dumb Animals.) I used to kill birds Id my boybood, . Bluebirds and robins and wrens, I bunted them up In tbe mountains, I bunted them down lu tbe glens, I never thought It wasslnful? I did It only for run? And I bad rare sport In the forest With tbe poor little birds and my gun. 1 But one beautiful day In the springtime I spied a brown bird In a tree. Merrily swinging and chirping, 1 As happy as bird could be, And raising my gun in a twinkling, I I fired, and my aim was too true: I For a moment the little thing fluttered, Then off to the bushes it flew. I followed it quickly, softly, And there to my sorrow I found, Right close to Its nest full of young ones, lutt nine uiru uciu uu iuo giuuuu . Poor birdies! For food they were calling; But now they could never be fed. For the kind mother-bird who bad loved them Was lying there bleeding and dead. I picked up the bird in my anguish, I stroked the wee motherly thing That could never more feed 11b dear young ones, Nor dart through the air on swift wing, And I made a firm vow in that moment, When my heart with such sorrow was stirred, That never again in my lifetime Would I shoot a poor innocent bird.
