Soon the first greys of morning began to steal over the world; pale shivers ran across the sky, and one bird Chirped in its sleep among the trees.
"Moonshine & Clover"
Laurence Housman

"In Wild Rose Time"
Amanda M. Douglas
"Arthur, I'm sure you are getting your feet wet," she Chirped.
"One Maid's Mischief"
George Manville Fenn
