 to have been published as a distinct treatise : the concluding

 by cause that this present treatyse sholde not come to the 

 hondys of eche ydle persone, whyche wolde desire it yf it 

 were enprynted allone by itself, & put in a lytyll plaunflet ;

 that the forsayd ydle persones whyche scholde haue but lytyll 

 mesure in the sayd dysporte of fysshyng, sholde not by this 

 meane vtterly dystroye it." The only copy known, which
