RELEASED by JOHN BANISTER TABB

First Line: GO, BIRD, AND TO THE SKY
Last Line: DEAR BIRD, FOR ME!
Subject(s): BIRDS; HAPPINESS; JOY; DELIGHT;

Go, bird, and to the sky
Pour forth what thou and I
Have suffered here:
Thou, for thy mate removed,
And I, for faith disproved
In one as dear.

Farewell; and if again
Thou find for prison-pain
Felicity,
Be this thy glad release
A prophecy of peace,
Dear bird, for me!
