As well content no prize to take, 

 As use of taken prize to make : 

 For so our Lord was pleased when 

 He fishers made fishers of men : 



Where, which is in no other game, 



A man may fish and praise his name. 



The first men that our Saviour dear 

 Did choose to wait upon him here, 

 Blest fishers were, and fish the last 

 Food was, that he on earth did taste. 



I therefore strive to follow those, 



Whom he to follow him hath chose. 



COR. Well sung Brother, you have paid your debt in good 

 coin ; we Anglers are all beholden to the good man that made 

 this song. Come Hostess, give us more Ale, and let's drink 

 to him. 



And now let 's every one go to bed that we may rise early ; 

 but first let's pay our reckoning, for I will have nothing to 

 hinder me in the morning ; for my purpose is to prevent the 

 Sun rising. 



PET. A match ; come Coridon, you are to be my bed- 

 fellow : I know, Brother, you and your Scholar will lie together ; 

 but where shall we meet to-morrow night ? for my friend 

 Coridon and I will go up the water towards Ware. 



Pise. And my Scholar and I will go down towards 

 Waltham. 



COR. Then let 's meet here ; for here are fresh sheets that 

 smell of lavender, and I am sure we cannot expect better meat, 

 or better usage in any place. 



PET. 'Tis a match. Good night to every body. 



Pise. And so say I. 



VEN. And so say I. 



Pise. Good morrow, good Hostess, I see my Brother Peter 

 is still in bed : Come give my Scholar and me a morning- 

 drink, and a bit of meat to breakfast, and be sure to get a 

 good dish of meat or two against supper, for we shall come 

 home as hungry as hawks. Come, Scholar, let's be going.
