PART II. 



THE 



COMPLETE FJLY-FISMER : 



en 



EVERY MAN HIS OWN FLY^MAKER. 



With pliant rod ath^rart the pebbled brook, 



Let me with judgment cast the feathered hook, 



Silent along the mazy margin stray. 



And with a fur-wrought fly delude the prey. 



To frame the little iinim.«l, pi vide 



All the gay hues that wait on female pridct 



Let Nature guide thte : sometimes golden wir« 



The shining bellies of the fly require ; 



The peacock's plumes thy tackle must not fail, 



Nor the dear purchase of the sable's tail. 



Each gaudy bird some lei'd r tribute brings, 



And lends the growi'ig insect proper winga ; 



Silks of all colours mu3t their aid impart, 



ADd every fur promote the fisher's art.
