ANGLING SKETCHES

Anglus.--PatienceScholar; 'tis but Master Hedgely's mencutting the
weeds above. We may rest us some hour or twotill they go by. Or
perchancefor a matter of five shillings -
Scotus.--NayMasterthis English angling is over costly. The rent of
your ditch is highthe expenses of travel are burdensome. In crawling
through your nettles and thistles I have scratched my faceand torn my
raimentand I will not pay the labourer to cease labouring in his industry.
Anglus.--Why thenpazienzaScholaror listen while I sing that sweet
ditty of country contentment and an angler's lifewrit by worthy Master
Hackle long ago.
SONG
The Angler hath a jolly life Who by the rail runs downAnd leaves his
business and his wifeAnd all the din of town. The wind down stream is
blowing straightAnd nowhere cast can he; Then lohe doth but sit and
wait In kindly company.
