This house was
inhabited by poor people, but the deepest poverty was apparent in the garret
lodging in the gable. In front of the little window, an old bent bird-cage hung
in the sunshine, which had not even a proper water-glass, but instead of it the
broken neck of a bottle, turned upside down, and a cork stuck in to make it hold
the water with which it was filled. An old maid stood at the window; she had
hung chickweed over the cage, and the little linnet which it contained hopped
from perch to perch and sang and twittered merrily.

all very well for you to sing," said the bottle neck: that is, he did not really
speak the words as we do, for the neck of a bottle cannot speak; but he thought
them to himself in his own mind, just as people sometimes talk quietly to
themselves. "Yes, you may sing very well, you have all your limbs uninjured; you
should feel what it is like to lose your body, and only have a neck and a mouth
left, with a cork stuck in it, as I have: you wouldn't sing then, I
know.

you should feel what it is like to lose your body, and only have a neck and a
mouth left, with a cork stuck in it, as I have: you wouldn't sing then, I know.
After all, it is just as well that there are some who can be happy. I have no
reason to sing, nor could I sing now if I were ever so happy; but when I was a
whole bottle, and they rubbed me with a cork, didn't I sing then? I used to be
called a complete lark.
