To the Cuc-oo
O b-ithe ne-~co-er! I have heard,
I hear thee and re-oice:
O Cuc-oo! Sha-- I ca-- thee Bird,
Or but a -anderin- voice?
-hi-e I a- --in- on the -rass,
I hear th- rest-ess shout:
-ro- hi-- to hi-- it see-s to -ass,
About, and a-- about!
To -e, no Babb-er -ith a ta-e
O- sunshine and o- --o-ers,
Thou te--est, Cuc-oo! In the va-e
O- visionar- hours.
Thrice -e-co-e, Dar-in- o- the S-rin-!
Even -et thou art to -e
No Bird; but an invisib-e Thin-,
A voice, a --ster-.
The sa-e in -ho- -- Schoo-~bo- da-s
I -istened to; that cr-
-hich -ade -e -oo- a thousand -a-s;
In bush, and tree, and s--.
To see- thee did I o-ten rove
Throu-h -oods and on the -reen;
And thou -ert sti-- a ho-e, a -ove;
Sti-- -on-ed -or, never seen!
And I can -isten to thee -et;
Can -ie u-on the --ain
And -isten, ti-- I do be-et
That -o-den ti-e a-ain.
O b-essed Bird! The earth -e -ace
A-ain a--ears to -e
An unsubstantia-, -aer- --ace;
That is -it ho-e -or thee!

(I realised when I put these Ns in that I had missed a few other letters out in some places.The scores however are correct as I counted the number of each letter from the original. Sorry for any confusion!)
