Sometimes it makes all the difference in the world to a person.' Come feed the little birds, show them you care And you'll be glad if you do Their young ones are hungry, their nest are so bare All it takes is tuppence from you....

And the moment you do so, piety and progress will automatically begin to rush through your veins out into the world, like the water that begins to flow, once you turn the faucet on.”
