Come, come, mister peacock, you must not be
proud,
Although you can boast such a train ;
For many a bird far more highly endowed
Is not half so conceited and vain.

Let me tell you, gay bird, that a. suit of fine
clothes
Is a sorry distinction at most,
And seldom much valued, excepting by those
Who such graces only can boast.
