The following lines against wanton and foolish destruction 

 of bird life are by Ralph Hodgson, one of the younger English 

 poets: 



SAW with open eyes 

 Singing birds sweet 

 Sold in the shops 

 For the people to eat, 

 Sold in the shops of 

 Stupidity Street. 



I saw in vision 

 The worm in the wheat, 

 And in the shops nothing 

 For people to eat; 

 Nothing for sale in 

 Stupidity Street.
