    Lesson 3 - ey bait

    To produce the /ey/ sound, the tongue is bunched forward and high. The tip of the
    tongue is above and slightly behind the lower front teeth. Lips and teeth are wide apart as
    in smile before it begins to close a little as the air stream moves through the mouth. At the
    same time, the tongue moves forward and lower in the mouth.
    The vowel sound is diphthong which means it has two vowel sounds but is
    pronounced as one syllable. The first vowel sound is more stressed than the second
    vowel. The sounds begin with /e/ gliding to /I/. the sound is more extended in the final
    position as in tray. It is shorter before a voiceless consonant as in waif.

    POEMS

    1. Stone walls do not a prison make.


    Nor iron bar a cage;
    Minds innocent and quiet take
    That for an hermitage.

    Not a note doest he complain
    But he fills the storms refrain
    With music of his own.

    3. A bald man felt the suns fierce rays


    Scorch his defenseless head;
    In haste to shun the noontide blaze.
    Beneath a palm he fled;
    Prone as he lay a heavy fruit
    Crash through his drowsy brain;
    Whom fate was sworn to persecute
    Finds every refuge vain.
    -C. H. Tawny
