They and the fowls seemed excellent travellers, and after a long day's march would come up smiling, like the jackdaw of Rheims, "not a penny the worse.

A corn factor, a horse jockey, an estate agent, and a jackdaw for cunningness, say I!"

The thunder of the cheering roused the very rooks and jackdaws from the towers of Thorn and the bastions of the Wolfsberg till they went drifting in a black cloud clamorously over the city.

a Capon, a button mould, a lame haberdine, a red beard Sprat, a Yellowhammer, a bow case, a very Jackdaw with his toung slit.
