Upon our cheeks health's ruddy glow, Ethereal beauty will bestow, And make our charms divine.
The jolly angler's, &c.
Boy, hither bring th'elastic wand, Endued with magic by our hand,
'Twill charm the finny prey ; With graceful sweep, the line once thrown, Fishes as well as men shall own
Our universal sway.
The jolly angler's, &c. |

THE TOAST.
WRITTEN ON A PANE OF GLASS IN AN INN NEAR DUMBARTON.
Let's fish and let's sing together, Tn spite of wind ami weather ; For here pure joy is found, So let the foist go round ; Come here's to all anglers true, Fill your glasses, but ne'er get fou ! |
