SECTION THIRD. 



BAIT-FISHING FOE TEOUT. 



" Hail to the spring-time and the hills ! 

 Hail to the meadows and the fog ! 

 Hail to the gorges and the riUs ! 

 All hail the trout 'neath yonder log ! 

 Have good care, 

 That's his lair : 

 Heigh-ho, hop, 

 Flip, flap, flop. 



Hail to the shocking old straw hat, 



Second-hand trowsers, coat, and boots, 

 Box of worms, lively and fat, 

 All hail your hook in those old roots ! 

 Careless man. 

 Mad as bran, 

 Neither snap. 

 Nor flip, flap. 

 Blessed and calm the smiling mom ; 



Birds sing wheresoe'er we roam. 

 Flowers the fields and woods adorn ; 

 AU hail my line 'midst dancing foam ! 

 Now look out — 

 Silent stand — 

 And a trout 



Will kiss my hand. 



Hail the graceful silver gleam ! 



Lo ! a trout, with sudden spring. 

 Forms a spray-bow o'er the stream, 

 And' is added to my string. 

 Verbum sap, 

 Flip, flop, flap."
