Additional quotes by Richard Harris Barham

Next morning I was up betimes -- I sent the Crier round,
All with his bell and gold-laced hat to say I'd give a pound
To find that little vulgar Boy, who'd gone and used me so;
But when the Crier cried, 'O Yes!' the people cried, 'O No!'

The jackdaw sat on the Cardinal’s chair!

And the priests, with awe,
As such freaks they saw,
Said, “The Devil must be in that little Jackdaw!”
