CHAPTER V. TO CHAPTER XVI. 



PISCATOR AND VENATOR. 



"piSCATOR. Good-morrow, good hostess, I see my brother 

 -L Peter is still in bed. Come, give my scholar and me i a 

 morning7drink, and a bit of meat to breakfast : and be sure to get 

 a dish of meat or two against supper, for we shall come home as 

 hungry as hawks. Come, scholar, let's be going. 



Venator.2 Well now, good master, as we walk towards the 

 river, give me direction, according to your promise, how I shall 

 fish for a Trout. , 



PiSCATOR. My honest scholar, I will take this very convenient 

 opportunity to do it. 



The Trout is usually caught with a worm, or a minnow, which 

 some call a penk, or with a fly, viz., either a natural or an arti- 

 ficial fly : concerning which three, I will give you some observations 

 and directions. 



And, first, for worms. Of these there be very many sorts : 



VARIATIONS. 



> and me a cup of ale, and be sure you get us a good dish of meat, &c.— zst edit. 



s Viator. Good master, as we walk towards the water, will you be pleased to make 

 the way seem shorter by telling me first the nature of the Trout, and then how to catch 

 him?
