Scarce heard amid the guns below.
A poem about one of these animals describes how it "drops the silver chain of sound" after it "rises and begins to round." In the first stanza of "In Flanders Fields," the sounds of this type of animal are "Scarce heard amid the guns below." One poem tells this animal "thou lovest, but ne'er knew love's sad satiety" (suh-TIE-uh-tee) after comparing it to "a high-born maiden in a palace tower" and "a poet hidden in the light of thought." The final stanza of that poem asks this animal to teach the speaker "half the gladness / that thy brain must know." George Meredith wrote a poem about this type of animal "ascending." For 10 points, name this type of songbird addressed as a "blithe spirit" in a poem by Percy Bysshe Shelley.
