THE PARTRIDGE 
“I know I’m a Partridge. 
Some say I’m a Grouse. 
Don’t care what they call me. 
Just stay away from my house. 
“I’ve heard much about races, 
And do want to go, 
To show them my speed 
That none of them know. 
“Am sure I will win 
If everything’s right; 
I’m afraid of no one 
Except Sir Bob White.”
