An excellent angler, and now with God.
And for winter fly-fishing it is as useful as an almanac out of date.
Blessings we enjoy daily, and for the most of them, because they be so common, men forget to pay their praises. [and miss much of their benefits from grateful appreciation]
The Waters are Nature's storehouse in which she locks up her wonders.
Blessings upon all that hate contention, and love quietnesse, and vertue, and Angling.
I have laid aside business, and gone a'fishing.
