must_v have_v a_o small_a needle_n with_o a_o eye_n to_o bait_v your_o hook_n now_o to_o show_v how_o to_o make_v fly_n learn_v to_o make_v two_o fly_n and_o make_v all_o that_o be_v the_o palmer_n rib_v with_o silver_n or_o gold_n and_o the_o may-fly_n these_o be_v the_o ground_n of_o all_o fly_n we_o will_v begin_v to_o make_v the_o palmer_n fly_v you_o must_v arm_v your_o line_n on_o the_o

the_o outmost_a part_n of_o the_o feather_n next_o the_o hook_n and_o the_o point_n of_o the_o feather_n towards_o the_o shank_n of_o the_o hook_n then_o whip_v it_o three_o or_o four_o time_n about_o the_o hook_n with_o the_o same_o silk_n you_o arm_v the_o hook_n then_o make_v your_o silk_n fast_o than_o you_o must_v take_v the_o hackle_n of_o the_o neck_n of_o a_o cock_n or_o capon_n or_o a_o plover_n top_n which_o be_v the_o best_a take_v off_o the_o one_o side_n of_o the_o feather_n than_o you_o must_v take_v the_o hackle_n silk_n or_o cruel_a gold_n or_o silver_n thread_n make_v all_o these_o fast_n at_o the_o bent_n of_o the_o hook_n than_o you_o must_v begin_v with_o cruel_a and_o silver_n or_o gold_n and_o work_v it_o up_o to_o the_o wing_n every_o bout_n shift_v your_o finger_n and_o make_v a_o stop_n than_o the_o gold_n will_v fall_v right_a then_o make_v fast_o then_o work_v up_o the_o hackle_n to_o the_o same_o place_n then_o make_v the_o hackle_n fast_o than_o you_o must_v take_v the_o hook_n betwixt_o your_o finger_n and_o thumb_n in_o the_o left_a hand_n with_o a_o needle_n or_o pin_n part_v the_o wing_n in_o two_o then_o with_o the_o arm_a silk_n as_o you_o have_v fasten_v all_o hitherto_o whip_v about_o as_o it_o fall_v cross_a betwixt_o the_o wing_n than_o with_o your_o thumb_n you_o must_v turn_v the_o point_n of_o the_o feather_n towards_o the_o bent_n of_o the_o hook_n then_o work_v three_o or_o four_o time_n about_o the_o shank_n so_o fasten_v then_o view_v the_o proportion_n for_o the_o other_o fly_n if_o you_o make_v the_o ground_n of_o hogs-wool_n sandy_a black_a or_o white_a or_o the_o wool_n of_o a_o bear_n or_o of_o a_o two_o year_n old_a red_a bullock_n you_o must_v work_v all_o these_o ground_n upon_o a_o wax_a silk_n than_o you_o must_v arm_v and_o set_v on_o the_o wing_n as_o i_o have_v show_v before_o for_o the_o may-fly_n you_o work_v the_o body_n with_o some_o of_o these_o ground_n which_o be_v very_o good_a rib_v with_o a_o black_a hair_n you_o may_v work_v the_o body_n with_o cruel_n imitate_v the_o colour_n or_o with_o silver_n with_o suit_v the_o wing_n for_o the_o oak-fly_n you_o must_v make_v he_o with_o orange-tawny_a and_o black_a for_o the_o body_n and_o the_o brown_a of_o the_o mallard_n feather_n for_o the_o wing_n if_o you_o do_v after_o my_o direction_n they_o will_v kill_v fish_n observe_v

french_a do_v add_v to_o this_o a_o slice_n or_o two_o of_o bacon_n i_o will_v show_v you_o the_o way_n to_o marrionate_v a_o trout_n or_o other_o fish_n that_o will_v keep_v a_o quarter_n of_o a_o
