The martins have returned,
To the chimney in the gym.
The whippoorwills outside Coate,
Lift their nightly hymn.
While robins clean the bugs,
From Steere Hall’s central “rugs.”
Birds, birds, there’s such a pinch;
Scarbrough cottage even has a trailer for a Finch.

[1] Brother Finch (born in 1910) came by Christ College for at least three revivals between 1975-1985). (He had a house trailer with him.) While there he taught a two- week course for us on more than one occasion. He is gone to heaven – God bless his memory.
