Excerpt from Memoirs of Dicky, a Yellow Canary: Written by Himself in Behalf of and Sold for the Famishing Irish To Good Little Boys And Girls. To young friends of the Irish, my Memoirs I send, And hope that my efforts they'll kindly befriend, I own that Canaries in gen'ral can't write, But the good cause of Ireland inspires me quite: And tho' not very old, I have seen a great deal, And for poor starving creatures can sensibly feel, For people who only have nettles to eat, And who think a potatoe a very great treat. So now I must ask little girls and good boys, Not to spend all their money in trifles and toys, But rather bestow a few shillings on me, Who, on the first page, busy writing they'll see. You always have plenty to eat and to drink, And on famishing Irish perhaps you will think, About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
