The sun yet warms his native ground -- The Dodo is not there! The voice which used to squawk and squeak Is now for ever dumb -- Yet may you see his bones and beak All in the Mu-se-um. Took a lot of time to memorize this in my childhood, sad to see it become obsolete.

Was this taught at your school?

Yes. It was an Anglo-Indian Christian school maybe thats why. None of my peers from other schools remember having it.
