THE CAROLINA PARROT. 39 
Pray am not I a very fine bird, 
Green, and yellow, and scarlet >— 
Upon my word!

CAPTAIN. 
Poll, how do you do my dear? 
You look well; it’s fine living here! 
Pou. 
Ha, Captain, how do you do?— Captain, your 
health, I say ; 
Captain, I’ll have the pleasure of drinking your 
health to-day! ha! ha! ha! 
I’m very glad to see you!— You remember, 
perhaps, 
That wood in Carolina, the guns and all the 
traps ;— 
To be sure you do!—lUadies, I’m a Carolina 
bird,— 
Some come from the East Indies, from the 
Cape, too, I have heard ;
