- (continued from previous page)But fight them with spirit both cheerful and gay.My friend Mr. Parker, a fisherman bold,
Went out with his rod in the rain and the cold,
To the bluest of bridges far up on Lough Rynn,
And angled for perch with a worm and pin. My friend Mr. Bradshaw, a fisherman stout,
Went out to Belscarra to capture a trout,
He coaxed him with minnow with grub and with fly
But didn't succeed as that trout was too fly. Ah, but do you remember, at Jamestown this year,
That salmon I hooked in the pool at the weir,
How just when I had him quite close to the shore,
He smashed up the tackle, we saw him no more.(continues on next page)- Collector
