Among meadow, overlooking a valley, stood an old farm. The house was overgrown with wisteria, and a low moss-covered wall ran round the farm-buildings; from the fields the tallest flowers could peep over into the yard.
Not far away lay the forest, where sometimes the jays could be heard laughing among the trees.
One summer evening, at the end of a long day of sunshine, when the hens were clucking happily in the farm-yard, and the chickens disputing about a worm, the warm silence down in the valley was broken by the sound of cuckoo!
Cuckoo!.
