And glossy plumage, dark and sleek,
Thy crimson moon and azure eye,
Cock of the heath, so wildly shy!”

Scatters the rear of darkness thin,
And to the stack or the barn door
Stoutly struts his dames before.”

“I have heard
The cock, that is the trumpet to the morn,
Doth with his lofty and shrill-sounding throat
Awake the god of the day, and at his warning,
Whether in sea or fire, in earth or air,
Th' extravagant and erring spirit hies
To his confine; and of the truth herein
This present object made probation.”

The strain of strutting chanticleer
Cry cock-a-diddle-dowe.”

Hath twice done salutation to the morn:
Your friends are up and buckle on their armor.”
