Jerry, I'm not too concerned about being too logical, though I've not decided yet which version to adopt related to the cage problem.

I was interested in Bryant's suggestion about a transition stanza between the murder and the introduction of the little bird. Though I'm attracted to the mystery invovled without this transition, it might be better to be more specific, as Bryant suggested. I took what he suggested and added and changed it, and this is where I am at the moment:

Near by was a little bird Perched high up in a tree With eyes so keen she watched unseen The fate of Henry Lee

Now all you ladies in the town Your secret will not keep For I saw you throw poor Henry Lee Down in that well so deep
