I am, Sir, a brother of the angle.
Angling may be said to be so like the mathematics that it can never be fully learned.
Those little nimble musicians of the air, that warble forth their curious ditties, with which nature hath furnished them to the shame of art.
God has two dwellings; one in heaven, and the other in a meek and thankful heart.
I have known a very good, fisher angle diligently four or six hours for a river carp, and not have a bite.
Lord, what music hast thou provided for Thy saints in heaven, when Thou affordest bad men such music on earth!
