for the favour — provided always, you know 

 it will not be an intrusion. 



Hal. — Trust this to me. And now, as 

 all circumstances are favourable, begin your 

 fishing. I recommend to you that fine pool 

 below the bridge ; there are always grayling 

 to be caught there — and already I see some 

 rising. 



Phys. — With what imitation of flies shall 

 we fish ? 



Hal. — As yesterday; a yellow fly for 

 your stretcher, and two duns for the drop- 

 pers. There, you have a good fish. And 

 now another — both grayling. 



Phys. — I shall try the rapid at the top of 

 this long large pool ; I see several fish rising 

 there. 



Hal. — Do so. You will catch fish there 

 — trout, but I fear no grayling. 



Phys. — Why not ? 



Hal. — In that part of the stream the water 

 is too rough for grayUng, and they like to be 

 nearer the deep water. Lower down, in the 

 same pool, there are large grayhng to be 

 caught.
