As Will, and Humfrey, John, and I 

 Who sadly there did render 

 The earth for clods which some call s.ids 

 Which turned the River of Amber.

 ^^'ho oft did shriek and cry 

 To see the fishes squander : 

 For very fear that we came there 

 To fish the River of Amber. 



" (10) When the waters did wa\ low 



^■ou might I he severall fishes know, 



And where they had their places : 



^rid roots and stones they swore by's wones,* 



And caught them by their faces. 



" (ii) From our hands the eels did slip: 

 About our feet the trout did skip, 

 With other fishes plenty : 

 But at the last, we caught them fast
