Reading drills
Exercise 1. Practice reading:

The Riddling Knight
O, what is louder than a horn?
And what is sharper than a thorn?
What is heavier than the lead?
And what is better than the bread?
O, what is higher than the tree?
And what is deeper than the sea?
O, shame is louder than a horn,
And hunger is sharper than a thorn.
And sin is heavier than a lead,
And the blessing’s better than the bread.
O, heaven is higher than the tree,
And love is deeper than the sea.
-
The duty of the strong
You who are the oldest
You who are the tallest
Don’t you think you ought to help
The youngest and the smallest?
You who are the strongest,
You who are the quickest,
Don’t you think you ought to help
The weakest and the sickest?
Never mind the trouble,
Help them all you can;
Be a little woman!
Be a little man!

There was an old owl lived in an oak,
The more he heard, the less he spoke,
The less he spoke, the more he heard –
Oh, if men were all like that wise bird!
