12 TO THE READER. 



When I have told the reader that in this fifth impression there 

 are many enlargements, gathered both by my own observation 

 and the communication with friends, I shall stay him no longer 

 than to wish him a rainy evening to read this following Dis- 

 course; and that if he be an honest angler, the east wind may 

 never blow when he goes a-fishing. 



I. W.
