"The Peacock and Parrot, on their Tour to Discover the Author of 'The Peacock At Home'" is an illustrated poem written by an unknown author, published in the early 19th century, specifically in 1816. This light-hearted literary work serves as a whimsical narrative following two birds, as they embark on an adventurous quest to uncover the true author behind the acclaimed poem "The Peacock at Home." The story is infused with satire and rich imagery, capturing the societal nuances of the time. The book tells the tale of Sir Argus, the Peacock, and his companion, the Parrot, who set off on a journey across England, fueled by vanity and curiosity. Throughout their travels, they visit various birds, including the Nightingale and the Owl, each providing insights and entertainment, but none revealing the identity of the poet. The story unfolds with a blend of humor and delightful encounters, as they navigate through the challenges of their quest. Ultimately, their persistence pays off when they discover that the beloved verses were penned by Mrs. Dorset. The narrative serves as both an homage to the original poem and an exploration of themes like pride, curiosity, and the quest for recognition in society.
