    A traveller who had visited Asia,Africa and Europe,at length,in making his tour through America,was overcome by heat,and lay tore pose under a tree.He had scarcely begun to doze1 when he was roused by a loud noise,of which he could not discover the cause.Looking about him,he perceived a small bird issuing forth2 from the hollow of a tree,whose beautiful plumage was variegated3 like the rainbow,and whose bulk scarcely exceeded that of a cockchafer.“I sit you,little insect,who makes this loud humming noise?”exclaimed the traveller.“Yes,”replied the bird,“you need not be surprised at that,for with men,as well as animals,the 1east often makes the greatest noise.”
