Description: A lark, who had young ones in a field of corn which was almost ripe, was under some fear lest the reapers should come to reap it before her young brood were fledged, and able to remove from the place; wherefore, upon flying abroad to look for food, she left this charge with them-that they should take notice what they heard talked of in her absence, and tell her of it when she came back again
