Then said the sea-birds, Sitting in their nests To the little ones Leaning on their breasts, – “Be not like Bubble, Headstrong, rude, and vain, Seeking by violence Your object to gain; “But be like the rock, Steadfast, true, and strong, Yet cheerful and kind, And firm against wrong.” Write two rhyming words
