THE COMPLETE ANGLER 335 



To which we may also, and with very good reason, 

 add the third way of angling by hand with a ground-bait, 

 as a third way of fishing in the middle, which is common 

 to both trout and grayling, and, as I said before, the best 

 way of angling with a worm, of all other I ever tried what- 

 ever. 



And now, Sir, 'I have said all I can at present think 

 of concerning angling for a trout and grayling, and I 

 doubt not have tired you sufficiently ; but I will give you 

 no more trouble of this kind, whilst you stay, which I 

 hope will be a good while longer. 



VIAT. That will not be above a day longer ; but if I 

 live till May come twelvemonth, you are sure of me again, 

 either with my master Walton, or without him ; and in 

 the meantime shall acquaint him how much you have 

 made of me for his sake, and I hope he loves me well 

 enough to thank you for it. 



Pise. I shall be glad, Sir, of your good company at the 

 time you speak of, and shall be loath to part with you 

 now ; but when you tell me you must go, I will then wait 

 upon you more miles on your way than I have tempted 

 you out of it, and heartily wish you a good journey.
