the_o tail_n of_o your_o rod_n may_v be_v towards_o the_o water_n if_o you_o stick_v they_o by_o any_o river_n side_n and_o the_o head_n of_o your_o rod_n scoop_v from_o the_o river_n that_o the_o

from_o the_o river_n they_o will_v be_v the_o bold_a to_o go_v onward_o and_o then_o they_o can_v no_o way_n escape_v and_o so_o likewise_o set_v your_o rod_n about_o the_o whole_a plat_n that_o you_o set_v with_o their_o tail_n outward_a and_o their_o head_n stoop_v inward_a for_o the_o foul_a will_v be_v the_o bold_a to_o go_v among_o your_o rod_n if_o they_o chance_v to_o light_v beside_o they_o but_o you_o must_v give_v good_a attendance_n upon_o your_o rod_n lest_o that_o the_o foul_a which_o be_v tangle_v do_v pick_v themselves_o and_o get_v away_o again_o but_o you_o must_v lie_v very_o close_o lest_o that_o the_o foul_a do_v chance_n to_o spy_v you_o but_o if_o it_o be_v somewhat_o darkish_a that_o you_o can_v espy_v whether_o there_o be_v any_o foul_a light_v among_o your_o rod_n then_o go_v to_o your_o rod_n and_o give_v ashue_v and_o if_o that_o there_o be_v any_o they_o will_v flutter_v straight_o and_o fly_v upward_o and_o if_o that_o there_o be_v none_o then_o take_v your_o staff_n and_o beat_v the_o river_n and_o lake_n within_o half_a a_o mile_n compass_v once_o or_o twice_o if_o you_o be_v able_a to_o compass_v it_o or_o more_o and_o then_o shall_v you_o have_v they_o resort_v to_o you_o limerods_n very_a thick_a for_o he_o that_o mind_v to_o catch_v any_o must_v so_o travel_v that_o he_o leave_v no_o lake_n or_o spring_n unsearched_a and_o see_v that_o your_o limerods_n be_v set_v some_o what_o low_o round_o about_o at_o the_o very_o enter_v for_o that_o be_v good_a for_o all_o manner_n of_o foul_a but_o if_o that_o they_o be_v set_v high_a within_o it_o be_v good_a reason_n that_o the_o foul_a do_v shut_v her_o wing_n before_o she_o be_v altogether_o at_o the_o ground_n and_o see_v that_o you_o do_v set_v your_o rod_n within_o one_o another_o about_o three_o quarter_n or_o half_a a_o yard_n asunder_o almost_o and_o if_o it_o freeze_v hard_a you_o must_v trim_v they_o with_o a_o little_a new_a lime_n and_o goose_n grease_n mingle_v

that_o the_o river_n be_v deep_a that_o you_o can_v set_v your_o rod_n in_o then_o take_v a_o pole_n or_o a_o cord_n and_o a_o long_a hay_n rope_n that_o will_v wind_v round_o about_o the_o length_n of_o the_o pole_n then_o take_v your_o limerods_n and_o stick_v they_o very_o thick_a and_o loose_a withal_o and_o then_o lie_v your_o pole_n or_o pole_n over_o the_o river_n and_o thrust_v the_o

within_o the_o water_n and_o that_o the_o head_n of_o your_o rod_n do_v stand_v close_o to_o the_o water_n and_o thus_o may_v you_o set_v as_o many_o pole_n or_o cord_n as_o you_o think_v the_o

lime_n as_o we_o call_v it_o though_o indeed_o it_o be_v but_o bird-lime_n but_o it_o be_v temper_v to_o hold_v within_o the_o water_n which_o if_o you_o let_v the_o cord_n be_v but_o a_o little_a within_o the_o water_n that_o it_o may_v scarce_o cover_v it_o and_o if_o the_o water_n be_v broad_a then_o take_v a_o cork_n or_o two_o and_o tie_v they_o to_o your_o line_n to_o hold_v it_o up_o this_o be_v a_o pretty_a way_n and_o not_o to_o be_v suspect_v how_o to_o make_v bird-lime_n very_o pure_a first_o peel_v the_o bark_n from_o the_o holly_n tree_n about_o midsummer_n then_o boil_v the_o same_o bark_n till_o the_o utter_a rind_n will_v pill_v from_o the_o green_a bark_n which_o will_v be_v within_o one_o day_n then_o lay_v the_o same_o inner_a bark_n so_o peel_v in_o some_o

then_o either_o beat_v it_o in_o mortar_n or_o grind_v it_o very_o small_a and_o then_o in_o some_o quick_a stream_n wash_v it_o very_o clean_a then_o put_v it_o in_o a_o pot_n of_o earth_n and_o it_o will_v spurge_v within_o three_o day_n then_o take_v of_o the_o scum_n twice_o or_o thrice_o for_o if_o there_o be_v any_o filth_n leave_v in_o it_o it_o will_v rot_v the_o lime_n after_o this_o keep_v the_o lime_n very_o close_o till_o you_o have_v need_v to_o occupy_v it_o mingle_v a_o little_a hog_n grease_n with_o it_o and_o so_o many_o you_o work_v your_o rod_n with_o it_o therefore_o

be_v great_a and_o fat_a for_o at_o the_o bate_n of_o her_o estate_n she_o will_v no_o long_o endure_v sometime_o without_o any_o medisine_n many_o man_n devise_v how_o they_o may_v mew_v their_o

that_o if_o she_o be_v whole_a nevertheless_o you_o shall_v hear_v my_o advice_n as_o i_o have_v see_v and_o prove_v whosoever_o put_v a_o goshawk_n a_o tercell_n or_o sparrehawke_n into_o mewe_n so_o high_a that_o she_o may_v be_v no_o high_o she_o will_v hold_v she_o long_o ere_o she_o lose_v and_o leave_v any_o feather_n and_o who_o so_o put_v she_o into_o mew_v lean_a it_o will_v be_v long_o ere_o she_o remount_v and_o who_o so_o put_v she_o in_o mew_n too_o lean_a and_o hungry_a if_o she_o have_v meat_n at_o her_o will_n she_o will_v eat_v too_o much_o because_o of_o hunger_n and_o she_o

with_o misféede_v she_o will_v have_v the_o frounce_v and_o many_o other_o disease_n that_o bring_v to_o souse_v thus_o by_o proof_n this_o be_v not_o the_o best_a disport_n and_o game_n of_o the_o say_v four_o in_o my_o opinion_n the_o game_n of_o foul_n be_v the_o simple_a for_o in_o winter_n in_o cold_a weather_n the_o foul_a can_v do_v no_o good_a but_o in_o the_o hard_a and_o cold_a

when_o he_o be_v wet_v up_o to_o the_o waste_n many_o discommodity_n i_o can_v show_v but_o for_o offend_v i_o let_v they_o pass_v then_o since_o it_o be_v so_o that_o hawk_v hunt_v and_o foul_n be_v so_o laborous_a that_o none_o of_o they_o may_v be_v a_o mean_a to_o a_o merry_a spirit_n which_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o long_a life_n unto_o the_o say_n of_o the_o wise_a in_o his_o parable_n doubtless_o then_o it_o must_v follow_v that_o fish_v with_o the_o angle_n be_v most_o delectable_a for_o all_o other_o be_v troublesome_a and_o laberous_a for_o in_o some_o kind_n of_o fish_v it_o make_v the_o fisher_n through_o wet_a and_o so_o cold_a that_o many_o and_o sundry_a time_n there_o ensue_v diverse_a infirmity_n through_o the_o same_o but_o the_o angler_n he_o have_v no_o cold_a

in_o angle_a look_v that_o you_o keep_v you_o from_o the_o sight_n of_o the_o fish_n either_o stand_v close_o on_o the_o land_n or_o behind_o some_o bush_n for_o if_o he_o see_v you_o than_o your_o

for_o if_o the_o fish_n be_v fray_v he_o will_v not_o bite_v a_o good_a while_n after_o for_o all_o manner_n of_o fish_n that_o feed_v by_o ground_n you_o must_v angle_v for_o they_o to_o the_o

the_o small_a the_o fish_n the_o more_o he_o swim_v above_o the_o three_o good_a point_n be_v when_o the_o fish_n bit_v that_o you_o be_v not_o too_o hasty_a to_o smite_v nor_o to_o take_v for_o you_o must_v abide_v till_o the_o bait_n be_v far_o in_o the_o mouth_n of_o the_o fish_n and_o then_o tarry_v no_o long_o and_o this_o be_v for_o the_o ground_n and_o for_o the_o float_n when_o you_o see_v it_o pull_v into_o the_o water_n or_o else_o carry_v soft_o upon_o the_o water_n then_o smite_v and_o look_v that_o you_o never_o over-smite_a the_o strength_n of_o your_o line_n for_o break_v and_o if_o it_o be_v your_o fortune_n to_o smite_v a_o great_a fish_n with_o a_o small_a line_n than_o you_o must_v lead_v he_o in_o the_o water_n and_o labour_v he_o there_o till_o he_o be_v drown_v and_o

for_o it_o be_v a_o prison_n to_o all_o fish_n and_o therefore_o the_o soon_o take_v but_o in_o the_o river_n the_o best_a angle_n be_v where_o it_o be_v deep_a and_o clear_a by_o the_o ground_n as_o

of_o may_n to_o september_n the_o best_a time_n of_o their_o bait_n be_v from_o four_o a_o clock_n in_o the_o morning_n until_o eight_o a_o clock_n and_o from_o four_o in_o the_o after_o noon_n till_o

a_o clear_a day_n and_o the_o pool_n fish_n will_v bite_v best_a in_o the_o morning_n and_o if_o you_o see_v at_o any_o time_n of_o the_o day_n the_o trout_n or_o the_o grail_a leap_n angle_v for_o he_o with_o a_o dub_v according_a to_o the_o season_n of_o the_o year_n and_o where_o the_o water_n eb_v and_o flow_v the_o fish_n will_v bite_v in_o some_o place_n at_o the_o ebb_n and_o in_o some_o place_n at_o the_o flood_n after_o they_o have_v have_v rest_v behind_o stange_n and_o arch_n of_o bridge_n and_o other_o such_o place_n the_o principal_a time_n to_o angle_n be_v in_o a_o lower_a
