Mike's repasts were thus seasons to him of delicious excitement, and he would tear de- liriously from one end of his box to the other, pecking to right and left, exclaiming in high glee, "Tweet, tweet! Something to eat! Bless my pin-feathers! Here's a treat!" This up-to-date son of an incubator had an ob- stinate instinct in him which made the tap of my finger on the floor of his box equivalent to the tattoo of a hen's bill beside some scratched-up delicacy, and it was funny to see him rush to ...the sound, his black eyes shining with joyous expect- ancy. So queerly did instinct serve him that he would grab the goody as If a brood of famished AN EASTER CHICK 259 brothers were on his heels and, spreading his bits of wings, race off with his prize, most indis- creetly shrilling as he went, "Twit, twit, twit! You shan't have a bit," and gobbling it down in a corner with choking precipitation. One of the "Arrows of the Wise" carries the point, "Be not idle and you shall not be longing," and I had no chance to miss my customary voca- tions with this importunate cockerel demanding constant society and care.
