Carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen abundances are obtained from C I, N I, and
O I high excitation permitted lines in the spectra of the standard A
star Vega and the 'hot' Am star Sirius. Vega has normal abundances.
Relative to Vega, Sirius is C deficient by 0.60 dex, N enhanced by 0.22
dex, and O deficient by 0.27 dex.
