The robin sings to his ruddy mate, And the chattering jays, in the winter weather, To prate and gossip will congregate; And the cawing crows on the autumn heather, Like evil omens, will flock together, In extra-session, for high debate; And the lass will slip from a doting mother To hang with her lad on the garden gate.

Who acts: robin, gossip, cawing, lass · What happens: sing, prate, congregate, crow, flock together, slip · To what, where: chattering jays, ruddy mate, autumn heather, extra session, garden gate
