Excerpt from The Life and Opinions of General Sir Charles James Napier, Vol. 1 of 4

When he could but just speak, hearing for the first time the caw of a single crow, probably a melancholy one which infancy could detect, he stretched forth his little hands, and weeping exclaimed with broken infantine accents What matta poor bird? What matta? And only by repeated assurances that the bird was not unhappy could he be pacified.
