“The wren, the wren, ¶ The king of all birds, ¶ On St. Stephen's Day ¶ He was caught in the furze”
The wran, the wran,
The King of all birds,
On St. Stephen's Day
He was caught in the furze,
Although he is little
His family is great
Up with the kettle
And down with the pan
A penny or two pence
To bury the "wran"- Collector

“Mrs. _ I came to see you, ¶ With my wren that's poor and feeble”
Mrs. _ I came to see you,
With my wren that's poor and feeble.
'Pon my word I'm ashamed to've you see him
And I hope your honour will relieve him.
