The Complete Angler. 19 



that learned *Jew> tells us of a 

 River in y#<^z,that runs and moves 

 fwiftly all the fix day es of the week, 

 and ftands ftill and refts upon their 

 Sabbath day. But S ; r, left this 

 difcourfemayfeem tedious , Ilhall 

 give it a fweet conclufion out of that 

 holy Poet Mr. George Herbert his 

 Divine Contemplation on Gods 

 providence. 



Lord,who hath praife enough, nay, who hath any ? 

 None can exprefs thy works, but he that knows them : 

 And none can know thy works , they are fo many, 

 A nd fo complete, but only he that owes them. 



We all acknowledge both thy power and love 

 To be exatt . transcendent, and divine ; 

 Who doesjoftrangely, and fj fweet ly move, 

 Whilft all things have their end } yet none but thine. 



Wherefore, moft Sacred Spirit, I here prefent 

 For me, and all my fellows praife to thte : 

 Andjujt it is that I jhould pay the rent, 

 Becaufe the benefit accrues to me. 



And as concerning Fifh, in that Pfai. 104.
