Prized Trophy

Alexander Pope

In "Prized Trophy," a single bird with a white breast and gray, black, and brown feathers is hung upside down against a dark door. A string is tied to one of its feet, and on the nail head is poised horizontally a single stem of a flower with three small crocus-like yellow flowers.
