Gilbert's (William, Gent.) Angler's Delight, containing tlie whole 

 art of neat and clean Angling, wherein is taught the readie.st way to 

 take all sorts of Fish from the Pike to the Minnow, together with their 

 proper baits, haunts, and time of fishing for them, whether in mere, pond,

In this book, the Angler's Delight, at p. 14, we read of Barbel frequent- 

 ing London Bridge ; p. 31, the fresh title of the second part. N. D. 

 The method of Fishing, &c., occurs p. 38. " Then go to Mother Gil- 

 bert's, at the Flower de Luce, at Clapton, near Hackney, and whilst 

 you are drinking a pot of ale, bid the maid make you two or three 

 pennyworth of ground-bait, and some paste (which they do very neatly 

 and well), p. 40. There is an excellent stand in the second meddow, 

 on the left hand beyond the ferry, under a willow tree ; in the midst 

 of the meddow by the water side." 

 Mr. Haslewood, noticing the edition of 1676, says, " there was probably 

 an earlier edition, from the date of the license for the press, that being" 

 with allowance, October 20, 1674, Roger L'Estrange. 

 The second edition was reprinted in fac-simile about 1780, by a book-
