The Fishers

The fishers, sailing, look to me
like men. of dauntless daring
and they'll come homeward, DER
| the sea, with loads Of kippered
herring. Before the dawn is
fairly sprung l see their boats
departing, and fishers old and
fishers young on dangers round
are starting. Oh, they are brave
and buoyant wights, and they
are stalwart ladies, and they
come whooping home O nights
with loads of fnnan haddies.
Their vigils in the fog they keep,
they know all Neptune's glories,
they see the wonders of the
deep, and should be full of
stories. They anchor in the lit
tie bay before my sawed-of
dwelling; l visit them at close
of day, when eurlews quit their
yelling. ooh, hoary farmer of
the sea-" say, to some old chap
pie, ''hand out a salty yarn to
me, and you will make me hap
py." There's nothing doing on
the deep" the fisher says, a-sigh-
ing; "a delegate should land
ward keep-that's where the
news is flying. l always knew
that Fulton stiff would never be
a winner; it only needed one
good biff to paralyze that sim
ner. The prize ring now is run
to cheese, and most of it is
schweitzer; the British champs
have some disease, the French
mans punk, you're right, sir.
Oh, yes, we sail our dories out,
through all the spray and
smother; but there's no yarn in
that, old scout-one DAYS lust
