Hard by the banke and sandy shore is fed. Perch, Trout, and Salmon love clean waters all, Green weedy-roots, and stoney gravel small. So doth the Bullhead, Gudgion, and the Loch, Who most in shallow brooks delight to be ; The Ruffe, the Dace, the Barbell, and the Roch, Gravel! and sand do love in less degree. TO KNOW EACH FISH's HAUNT. 275 But to the deep and shade do more approach, And over head some covert love to see Of spreading poplar, oake, or willow green, Where underneath they lurke for... being seene. The mighty Luce great waters haunts alway, And in the stillest place thereof doth lie, Save when he rangeth forth to seek his prey. And swift among the fearful fish do flie ; The dainty Humber loves the marley clay, And clearest streams of champion country nigh. And in the chiefest pooles thereof doth rest, Where he is soonest found, and taken best. The Cavender amidst the waters faire, In swiftest streams doth most himself bestow. The Shad and Tweat do rather like the laire Of brackish waves, where it doth ebb and flow, And thither also doth the Fleck repaire, And flat upon the bottom lieth low.
