"Well, and did it sound any different from what it
did last year, and the year before, and the year before that?"
inquired in measured, world-wearied tones the dampener of ardors.
No, my poor friend, it did not. And just because it sounded the
same as it has in all the succeeding springs since life was young,
it touched a chord in one's heart that must be long since mute in
your own, making you poor, indeed, if this dear familiar bird voice
cannot set it vibrating once more.

Project Gutenberg eBooks are often created from several printed
editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the US
unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we usually do not
keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
We are now trying to release all our eBooks one year in advance
of the official release dates, leaving time for better editing.
