- Five eggs yield two finches (baby)
- Which the parents feed by barfing the juices
- Of their stomachs; i give them lettuce and maybe
- A bit of broccoli. For this they find many uses.

- Tho' the chicks bear the tufts of Ralph, who is
- The pater (easily), Grinch with sexual deviance
- has become the mater to the infant clueless.
