“Meinie” is an old English word for “many”—“in the sense of ‘a many’ persons attending one, as bridesmaids, ” the author explains in a preface. This 1873 work looks at avian life through the eyes of both a poet and scientist, compiling lectures delivered at Oxford on the robin, the swallow, and the dabchick.
