THE JOLLY ANGLER. 



BELOW a shady hazel-tree 



An angler trimm'd his flies, 

 Singing, hey deny ! trout that are merry 



No longer no longer are wise ! 



ii. 



Of dapper make and ruddy hue, 



'Twas a jolly blade, I ween, 

 With his hey deny fresh from the ferry, 



Over the meadow so green. 



in. 



Right gladsomely he eyed the stream, 



And shook his wand anon, 

 With a hey derry brown as a berry, 



The wandering waters run. 



IV. 



Oh ! well I wot that ruddy blade 



Is one of our hearty band, 

 With his hey derry trout that are merry 



Swim to the angler's hand. 



Derry hey derry 



Trout that are merry 

 Swim to the angler's hand.
