[elodieunderglass]

Singer and tailor am I –

Doubled the joys that I know –

Proud of my lilt through the sky,

Proud of the house that I sew –

Over and under, so weave I my music – so weave I the

house that I sew.

– Darzee’s Chaunt, poem by the tailorbird in the short story Rikki-Tikki-Tavi, from The Jungle Book (1894) by Rudyard Kipling
