BY JOHN 6. SAKE, OF VERMONT.
There lived an honest fisherman,
knew him passing we'll;
lie dwelt hard by little pond,
Within little dell.
A grave and quiet man was he,
Who lov'd his no TX and rod;
So eren ran his lines oil life,
His neighbors thought it odd.
For science and for books, he said
He never had wish;
No school 10 him was worth ig,
Except ''scI.ooi Of fish"
This single-minaed fisherman
a double calling had;
To tend as hocks in winter time,
In summer, ii-h or shad.
In short, this honest fisherman
All other tolls forsook,
And, though no vagrant man was he,
He liy'd By Shook and erook.'
All day th lat fisherman would sit
Upon an ancient log,
And gaze upon The water, like
S me sedentary frog.
cnnninr fisherman was he,
His angles were al night;
And when he scia ch,d his aged pol,
You'd know he'd got bite.
To charm The fish he never spoke,
Aud, hon h is vo ee was fine.
He ound tie most convenient way
VS. just 10 'drop hae.''
And many "gndgeon'' of the pond,
II made o speak o-day,
Would own with ~ ef thi angler had
A nighly stalking ray"
ne day, while fishing on the log,
He motfned bis want oi luck;
When suddenly he ieit bite,
And jerking-eaugh, a ''duek." "
Alas that day, the fisherman
Had taken to9 mu h grog,
AM b. n bat lant-man, too,
lie coaiinr s'keep the fog'
IN vain he stfoye wits all his might,
IND tried To n the .hoFe:
Down, down, he wen To eed the fsh
ie'd baited oil before.
The moral of this mournfui tale
t. all Is plan and clear;
A single "drop 100 IN ch" OF rum,
May make a waterY bier.
And he who will not ssign tie pledge"
And keep the promise tat,
May be. IN spite OF fate, st.J
