Wit ye well, it was a merry sight to see those twittering birds making feast upon the good things which those children brought, and our little Mistress Merciless and little Master Sweetheart had sweet satisfaction therein. WIT YE WELL IT WAS A MERRY SIGHT TO SEE THOSE TWITTERING BIRDS MAKING FEAST UPON THE GOOD THINGS WHICH THOSE CHILDREN BROUGHT AND OUR LITTLE MISTRESS MERCILESS AND LITTLE MASTER SWEETHEART HAD SWEET SATISFACTION THEREIN
 had his home in the top of an exceeding high tree, hard by the pleasant arbor, and here did he use to sit at such times as the little people came into that arbor, and then would he sing to them such songs as befitted that quiet spot, and them that came thereto. But there was a full evil cat that dwelt near by, and this cruel beast found no pleasure in the music that Joyous did make continually; nay, that music filled this full evil cat with a wicked thirst for the blood of that singing innocent, and she had no peace for the malice that was within her seeking to devise a means whereby she might comprehend the bird Joyous to her murderous intent. Now you must know that it was the wont of our little Mistress Merciless and of Master Sweetheart to feed the birds in that fair garden with such crumbs as they were suffered to bring with them into the arbor, and at such times would those birds fly down with grateful twitterings and eat of those crumbs upon the greensward round about the arbor. RD JOYOUS HAD HIS HOME IN THE TOP OF AN EXCEEDING HIGH TREE HARD BY THE PLEASANT ARBOUR AND HERE DID HE USE TO SIT AT SUCH TIMES AS THE LITTLE PEOPLE CAME INTO THAT ARBOUR AND THEN WOULD HE SING TO THEM SUCH SONGS AS BEFITTED THAT QUIET SPOT AND THEM THAT CAME THERE TOO BUT THERE WAS A FULL EVIL CAT THAT DWELT NEAR BY AND THIS CRUEL BEAST FOUND NO PLEASURE IN THE MUSIC THAT JOYOUS DID MAKE CONTINUALLY NAY THAT MUSIC FILLED THIS FULL EVIL CAT WITH WICKED THIRST FOR THE BLOOD OF THAT SINGING INNOCENT AND SHE HAD NO PEACE FOR THE MALICE THAT WAS WITHIN HER SEEKING TO DEVISE A MEANS WHEREBY SHE MIGHT COMPREHEND THE BIRD JOYOUS TO HER MURDEROUS INTENT NOW YOU MUST KNOW THAT IT WAS THE WONT OF OUR LITTLE MISTRESS MERCILESS AND OF MASTER SWEETHEART TO FEED THE BIRDS IN THAT FAIR GARDEN WITH SUCH CRUMBS AS THEY WERE SUFFERED TO BRING WITH THEM INTO THE ARBOR AND AT SUCH TIMES WOULD THOSE BIRDS FLY DOWN WITH GRATEFUL TWITTERINGS AND EAT OF THOSE CRUMBS UPON THE GREENSWARD ROUND ABOUT THE ARBOUR
