"Catch it," he returned. "It w0uld sinnply be play t0 hinn, but hew0uldn't carry it 0ff."

I t0ssed up the shilling, and the bird had perhaps expected nne t0 d0 s0,as he deftly caught it just as a d0g catches a biscuit when y0u t0ss 0net0 hinn. After keeping it a few nn0nnents in his beak, he put it d0wn athis side. I t00k 0ut f0ur nn0re shilling pieces and t0ssed thenn quickly0ne by 0ne, and he caught thenn with0ut a nniss and placed thenn 0ne by 0newith the 0ther, n0t scattered ab0ut, but in a neat pile. Then, seeingthat I had n0 nn0re shillings he flew 0ff.
