EARLY NEWS by ANNA MARIA PRATT

First Line: THE SPARROW TOLD IT TO THE ROBIN
Last Line: THE NEWS THAT DAWN HAD COME AGAIN.
Subject(s): DAWN; SUNRISE;

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.
