PREFACE.

THE first edition of this list appeared in 1861, under the
auspices of the /7e/d newspaper. A supplement was added in
1869 from the same source. Since the latter date, the work has
remained in abevance, the edition having been exhausted.

Though chargeable with many shortcomings the “ New
Bibliotheca Piscatoria’’ was, numerically, at least, an important
advance on its predecessors. For bibliographical uses it may
be well to recapitulate here who were those predecessors and
what their value and importance.

The earliest printed list of angling books was compiled by
Mr., afterwards Sir Henry Ellis. It appeared in 1811, as a con-
tribution to Sir Egertun Brydges’ ‘‘ Bibliographer,” and a few
copies were afterwards issued in a separate form. It consisted
of eighty works, and furnished some scanty biographical notices
of their authors. This list was afterwards extended to one
hundred and eighty entries, in a revised issue, appended by
Mr. Wm. Pickering, to Boosey’s ‘‘ Piscatorial Reminiscences,”
in 1836. Four years later, Mr. James Wilson appended “ An
abbreviated list of one hundred works on Halieuticks”’ to his
sporting treatise, ‘‘The rod and the gun,” which treatise, as
well as the list in an abbreviated form, had been originally
printed in the 7th edition of the ‘‘ Encyclopedia Britannica,”
and, in an enlarged form, in the 8th edition of that work.
This was followed, in 1847, by the ‘* Waltonian Library” of
Dr. Bethune, the able, erudite and sympathetic editor of the
American edition of ‘“ The Complete Angler,” in which publi-
cation it figured as an appendix. It contained about three
hundred entries. Finally, in 1856, appeared the “ Bibliographi-
cal Catalogue” of Mr. J. Russell Smith, given as a sequel to
Mr. Robert Blakey’s ‘“ Angling literature of all nations,” and of
which, as we have elsewhere stated, it may be said to have
formed the most valuable feature. This contains two hundred
and sixty-four works on angling.

Vili PREFACE.

Thus the greatest number of angling books chronicled, so
far, was three hundred, whereas ‘The New Bibliotheca Pisca-
toria” included six hundred and fifty distinct works on the
Sport.

The present edition has made a great stride onwards in bulk,
though the numerical increase, in the works registered, falls far
short of the same ratio. It contains nearly six times the mat-
ter of its predecessor. But it is in method not in bulk that
we claim to have chiefly advanced. Knowing that the value of
a bibliography depends, solely, on its precision and accuracy, we
have endeavoured to set forth the title of every book registered in
its literal form, and to furnish those minute particulars, touching
printers, publishers, pagination, illustrations, &c., which serve to
shew the successive changes through which the most popular
angling books have passed, and enable the collector to prove the
completeness of the works in his possession.

The efforts made in this direction, have fortunately received
invaluable help from Mr. Alfred Denison, who placed his unique
angling library at our disposal, and during the many weeks,
devoted to the examination of his three thousand volumes was
ever ready to assist with the knowledge acquired during an
enthusiastic devotion of many years to his favourite subject. Such
assistance requires our largest and most cordial recognition.

Ample, however, as is the Denison collection, it does not
contain two thirds of the works (that is to say editions) included
in our list, and our labour has been principally spent in searching
for other books, the existence of which was all but certain,
though we hesitated to insert them until copies had been
examined and their titles and other necessary particulars obtained
from actual inspection.

This latter principle has governed us throughout, but we have
occasionally had to deviate from it and to admit works (the
existence of which appeared well substantiated) on the mere
authority of our forerunners. Pickering, Russell Smith, Kreysig,
Engelmann, Bosgoed and Kayser have been followed when the
books described could not be procured. On the other hand, a
certain number (included previously on insufficient grounds)
have now been suppressed ; a course of severity, that our readers
will perhaps consider might have been pushed further with
advantage.

The earlier pages of our list had already passed through the
press before the Denison and another large collection had been
thrown open to us. For that portion of our work, therefore, our
apologies are more especially needed. It is neither so ample in
detail, nor so precise in verification as what follows.

PREFACE. iX

It will be seen that several works of marked interest and
importance are now registered for the first time—the rare
llemish Tract, for instance, on Fowling and Fishing, (in the
Denison collection) which is a competitor, for priority, with our
own “ Treatyse of Fysshynge;” the poem of Richard de
Fournival (‘‘La vieille, ou les derniers amours d’Ovide”’ )
belonging, probably, to a yet earlier epoch—the Ode of Mr.
Thomas Herrick, author of ‘‘ Miscellany Poems ”—and others.
Amongst the novel features of our list we have also to call
attention to the very many early German works now registered
for the first time. We have been able to include, among angling
writers, William Browne, of ‘‘ Britannia’s Pastorals,’”’ Jacob Cats,
Michael Drayton, the unknown author of the “ Dialogues of
Creatures moralized,” Erasmus, Isachius and Sir Philip Sidney
—and among the moderns, Walter Savage Landor. Thus we
have cast our net with a wider sweep than heretofore—may our
readers be satisfied with the draught we have brought to shore !

The editions of Walton and Cotton, which in the pages of
“The chronicle of the compleat angler,” stood at fifty-three,
have now reached the imposing total of ninty; twenty-one
having been issued since the date (1864) of that work, and sixteen
having escaped notice on that occasion. If the venerable
shade of the Father of anglers could be conjured up from
his Elysium (fishy be the streams there and the wind due
South for ever!) and revisit the light of day, how amazed
would he be (simple soul!) at the perpetuation and extension of
his fame and at the goodly bulk of our ‘ Bibliotheca’—he that
counted fishing books by twos and threes! One thing is forced
upon our conviction in this matter—that angling has become a
force in literature, greater far than that of its kindred sports. In
a battle of books Auceps and Venator would have to retire,
worsted in the contest, leaving Piscator dominant. To him who
doubts this we say—-cross our threshold and...‘ circumspice.’

The Fisheries and Pisciculture having become important
and special departments, we have judged it expedient to class
them apart. In our register of Fishery pamphlets we have
restricted ourselves to English and Colonial publications, and
we have included with these an extensive list of Papers pre-
sented to both Houses of Parliament, which contain much
important matter respecting the condition of the fisheries in
past times, and the efforts made for their encouragement and for
the amelioration of the condition of those engaged in them.
These papers consist of Petitions, Statistical returns, Reports of
Committees and Bills. The last in many, or most instances,
became Acts of Parliament, after alterations which it is some-
times of special interest to note-; but some never passed beyond

x PREFACE.

the embryonic stage. These need not therefore be neglected by
the historian, as they, equally with the others, indicate wants
and suggest remedies which may have failed to find acceptance
from our legislators {rom other causes than lack of merit.

The list of Statutes repealed, spent, or in force, concerning
the fisheries, the preservation of fish, &c., is a nearly complete
conspectus of our legislation on these subjects. They show the
early appreciation of the importance of this source of national
wealth. The endeavours to encourage the fisheries in Ireland
are clearly indicated in a long list of statutory enactments,
some of which appear to have been so liberal in their character,
that they drew forth remonstrances from the Scotch and
English fishermen, whose trade suffered severely in conse-
quence of the inordinate bounties given to their Irish competi-
tors. Notwithstanding such encouragement and the possession
of waters abounding in fish, the pursuit never seems to have
taken much root in Ireland.

We have added, as an appendix, a collection of citations
from the elder Poets, Dramatists, &c., in which the sport is dealt
with. To Sir Harris Nicolas is due the honour of this initiative,
though only in a very limited degree. Thus his quotations
from Shakespeare, were but four in number. We have ex-
tended them to twenty-nine. For two or three of these we are
indebted to the Rev. H. N. Ellacombe’s interesting article,
‘“‘ Shakespeare as an Angler,’ published in the ‘ Antiquary.”
It must, however, be distinctly understood that this collection
is not offered as exhaustive, and we trust to the kindness of such
of our readers as the subject may interest, to continue the search
in the wide field still unexplored, and to communicate the result
of their gleanings.

We have endeavoured to arrange our entries in the simplest
manner. Books are inscribed under the names of their res-
pective writers, real or fictitious, if these are found in title
or preface. Anonymous books are entered under the first
proper name in the title, or failing a proper name, under the first
substantive. In the case of books published under the initials of
their writers, cross references are generally inserted from and to
the title, which is treated as if the work were anonymous. All
words not enclosed in square brackets will be found on the title-
pages of the books recorded, and where words are omitted, the fact
is shown. The spelling and punctuation are in all cases carefully
preserved. When the reader finds “varity” for “ variety,”
‘ filies”’ for “flies,” ‘‘ pubilshed”’ for ‘‘ published,” e¢c, he must
understand that the vagary is due to the author or his printer.
The customary szc is never used in such cases.

PREFACE. xi

We have appended a very copious index to the persons and
places mentioned, and, as a further aid to our readers, have entered
therein the titles of all anonymous works, denuded only of the
particles, A, An and The.

And now we have only to perform the pleasant task of
thanking those who have given us their aid and co-operation in
the course of our labours ; and first amongst such, the owners of
libraries that have been thrown open to us. Of Mr. Denison we
have already spoken. We have next to acknowledge our obliga-
tion to Mr. Joseph Grego, whose large collection, principally of
old English books, gathered with patient care, during the past
fifty years, and remarkable for the multiplicity of editions and
the condition of the books themselves, has been always open to
us, and has yielded many scarce volumes, which we have not met
with elsewhere. Since our examination of this collection it
has found a new owner in the United States.

To Mr. Alfred Wallis, of Derby, we are indebted for constant
and assiduous help and counsel. . His great and special knowledge
of the subject has been most generously afforded us throughout
the progress of the work, and his choicest treasures entrusted to
our hands. Mr. Joseph Crawhall, of Newcastle has communicated
his rarest books and given us the advantage of his minute know-
ledge of North Country literature.

The Rev. M. G. Watkins, besides lending us his books, has
rendered us unnumbered services ; and Mr. W. R. Wilson of the
British Museum has placed his extensive and precise knowledge
of books at our service, and there are few sheets in our work, that
have not by his means been enriched with a fact, or preserved
from a blemish.

Among the numerous American correspondents who have
given us their sympathy and assistance, two may be singled out
for special acknowledgement : Mr. Frederick Mather, of pisci-
cultural celebrity, and Mr. John Bartlett, of Boston, whose
admirable catalogue, recently issued, of his own valuable col-
lection, forms a choice volume, which many will covet, though
few can hope to possess.

Mr. Francis Francis must rejoice at the completion of a work,
which has caused incessant appeals to his good offices—appeals,
let us add, that have never failed to meet with courteous and
prompt response. But far above his unflagging zeal on our
behalf, do we rate the sympathetic manner in which it has
been exercised.

The rest we must dismiss in a single paragraph for space fails
to give to each his meed of praise and thanks. They are

[ The Roman writers on agriculture confine themselves to the
notice of vivaria, and say nothing on the mode of capturing their
inhabitants, but in this Greek compilation, made in the beginning of
the tenth century by one Cassianus Bassus, though formerly attrib-
uted to one of the Constantines ( Pogonatus or Porphyrogenitus)
we find a book devoted to fishing and baits. This is Book xx which
has 46 short chapters, extracted from Florentinus, Oppian, Demo-
critus, Tarentinus, Dydimus, efc., “Concerning fish-ponds and the
feeding of fish therein, the bringing them into one spot, the taking
of them and the composition of all kinds of baits.” Chapter 17 will
serve as a specimen: “ Take three limpets and having taken out the
fish inscribe on the shell the words, ‘The God of armies,’ and you
will immediately see the fish come to the same place in a suprising
manner.” This compilation no doubt found its way to Western
Europe after the fall of the Eastern Empire and the first; edition in
the original Greek was Basiliz, Winter, [1538]. 8vo. The work
had been published in Latin, ‘J. Cornario medico physico inter-
prete,” during “he previous year, at Venice and again at Basle, where
editions were also issued in 1540, and other years. The best edition
in Greek and Latin is that edited by R. Needham noted above.
There were Italian translations by N. Vitelli, Venetia, 1542. 8vo.,

Xvi BIBLIOTHECA PISCATORIA.

and by P. Lauro, Venetia, 1549. 8vo. A French translation by
Anthoine Pierre was issued at Poictiers in 1543 in folio; and it was
translated into English by the Rey. T. Owen and published in
London in 1805, with the title ““Geoponika. Agricultural pursuits.”

It is improbable that this Greek manuscript was known in
Western Europe when the Flemish “ Boecxken” (see pp. 35-7) was
compiled, but whether or no the contents of the latter are altogether
different and show an independent origin. Ever since writing was
invented fishermen all the world over have no doubt made notes of
their favourite baits. ]

A (J. L.). The river Dove, with some quiet thoughts on the
happy practice of angling. [By John Lavicount Anderdon.]
London, Pickering, 1847. 12°.

[A former edition was printed for private circulation in 1845
without date, or printer's name, and with the following title : “ The
river Dove; with some quiet thoughts on the happy practice of

angling, near to the seat of Mr. Charles Cotton at Beresford Hall, in
Staffordshire.” Six copies of this edition were printed in 4to. and
six of the I2mo size on tinted paper. The number was {limited to
twenty-five.

The author, in his introduction, thus addresses the reader: “ Sir,
the book I here present to you was put into the printer’s hands for
the entertainment ofa few gentlemen fishers. I heartily wish it were
a more worthy tribute to the memory of those best masters of the
art, Mr. Izaac Walton, and Mr. Charles Cotton,

“ Alas that they are dead !””

The work is an imitation of the quaint style of the assumed epoch,
Walton and Cotton having been adopted as models. It is in the
form of a colloquy, the interlocutors being an angler, a painter and
(occasionally) their host. The scene is in Derbyshire, in the foot-
steps of Charles Cotton, along the immemorial greensward of Dove-
dale. A biographical notice of Anderdon 1s prefixed to his posthu-
mous work, “Geron,” 1877; and “A series of views,” taken by an
artist under his instructions, ‘of Beresford Hall and the river Dove,
was issued with a brief preface by his brother-in-law, Mr. F. Man-
ning, in 1866, and will be found under Corron (Charles). ]

[The first, and indeed the only writer amongst the ancients who
makes mention of fishing with the artificial fly. In the 15th Book of
his History, he says: “The Macedonians, who live on the banks of
the river Astraeus, which flows midway between Berea and Thessa-
lonica, are in the habit of catching a particular fish in that river by
means of a fly called hippurus ; avery singular insect it is—bold and
troublesome like all its kind, in size a hornet, marked like a wasp,
and buzzing like a bee.” From his account of these fish they must
have been trout, and he exactly describes the method in which a
trout feeds at present, ‘when one of them sees the fly floating
down towards him, he approaches, swimming gently under the
water, fearing to move the surface lest his prey should be scared.
Then drawing nearer underneath, he sucks in the fly, as a wolf
snatches a sheep from the fold, or an eagle a goose from the farm-
yard, and having done so disappears under the ripple.” The
fisherman, he adds, cannot use the natural fly, for a touch of the
human hand rubs off its delicate bloom and destroys its wings.
“Therefore,” he resumes, “they overreach the fish by an artful
device. Round the hook they twist scarlet wool and two wings are
secured on this wool from the feathers which grow under the
wattles of a cock, brought up to the proper colour with wax. _ The
rod they use is six feet in length and the line is of the same length.
Then the angler lets fall his lure. The fish attracted by its colour,
and excited, draws close, and judging from its beautiful appearance
that it will obtain a marvellous banquet, forthwith opens its mouth,
but 1s caught by the hook, and bitter indeed is the feast it enjoys,
inasmuch as it is captured.”

Stephen Oliver (Mr. Chatto) in his “Scenes and Recollections of
Fly Fishing,” first pointed out this remarkable passage, but it is now,
for the first time, accurately translated. A£lian lived in the 3rd @entury

(“Of fishing,” pp. 43-64. Of a fish which the author calls the
“Torcott,” he says, “I only let you know that he is only found in
the Pool Linperis, in Caernarvonshire, and leave you to the Welsh-
man’s description both of him and his baits.” He alludes to the
Torgoch or charr which is, however, found in other lakes besides

“ As I roved out one evening down by the riverside, [glide,
To catch some trout and salmon where the streams so gently
Down by its brook my way I took, where there by chance
did spy,
A lovely maid both plain and gay just as she passed me by.” ]

[Attributed, and apparently on sufficient grounds, to Dr. Thomas
Scott, a dissenting minister of Ipswich, the author, among other
works, of a translation of the Book of Job into English verse with
notes, a highly eulogistic notice of which appears in the “ Gentle-
man’s Magazine,” vol. 41, pp. 366-69. He died at Hapton, Norfolk,
to which place he removed from Ipswich in 1775. This work was
reprinted in Ruddiman’s “ Collection of scarce, curious, and valu-
able pieces, both in prose and verse,” Edinburgh, 1773 & 1785, and
a large portion of it was appropriatcd without acknowledgment by
Lathy, in his poem, “The angler.” The original edition has
become rare. In a preface entitled ‘The bookseller to the reader,”
occurs the following humorous justification of angling :—‘‘To
a man of any compass of thought and experience in the world
it is well-known that angling is not a mere recreation, but a
business—a business which employeth most orders, professions
and occupations among men. This might be fairly proved by an
induction of particulars. For instance we booksellers angle for
authors, and authors angle fora dinner, or for fame. Again, doth
not the lawyer angle for clients, the doctor for a fee, the divine for
preferment, the statesman for secrets, the courtier for a pension, and
the needy for a place? Further what is he who offereth a bribe,
but a fisher for another man’s conscience? And what is he who
taketh a bribe, but the silly fish that is caught with the bait ?
What is here said may suffice to show the universality of our
author's subject.”

This, however, is very much in the strain of the “ Royal recre-
ation of jovial anglers,’’ which see. ]

[Quoted by Blakey, who, in his “ Historical sketches of the angling

some verses on “ The salmon fly.” Speaking of American angling
works, he says, “In the United States angling literature has been
cultivated with ardour within the last thirty years. We find books
on the subject in every section of this vast continent, of more or
less merit and pretensions, both in poetry and prose.”—an imagin-
ative statement, for angling books are in fact the reverse of numer-
ous on the other side of the Atlantic. Dr. Bethune (a good
authority) in his list appended to the American edition of Walton
(1847) includes but three. It is true the succeeding years have

[The “method” is one adopted “at a small country town” near
Norwich, wherein worms, enclosing a thorn, are attached by threads,
“in hundreds,” to the bushes overhanging a stream, for the purpose
of catching small fish. Mr. Arderon, by constantly changing the
water, kept fish ‘for years” in glass jars for the purpose of observing
their habits and faculties. In continuation of the subject the same
volume (pp. 424-8), contains a paper “On the Banstickle or prickle-
bag alias prickleback and on fish in general;” vol. xlv., pp. 149-155,
one “On the hearing of fish ;” and again at pp. 321-3, a record of
his observations on a mortification in the tails of roaches kept
in confinement, with figures of a fish with Saprolegnia ferax (?) well
developed, and also of the filaments of the fungoid growth
magnified. His observations onthe pugnacity and voracity of the
stickleback, and on the senses and affections of fish anticipate more
recent observers and prove him a pioneer in this field of research.
Vol. xliv., also contains a paper by the same writer (p. 395), “On
the perpendicular ascent of eels.” ]

and describes its fish and fishing. He mentions two species of fish
—the sa/ay and the fario, which are evidently the burn and salmon-
trout of modern times; and although he takes no notice of angling
with the fly, he describes a scene of river-fishing with rod and a
float in the language of poetry and truth. See vv. 240—265.

Flow soft ye waters, and ye winds be still!”

[‘ Barker’s delight” is also inserted in the “Young sportsman’s
miscellany,” London, 1826. 12mo. One copy of the reprint by
Burn was on vellum and is now in the Denison collection; four
were on straw-coloured paper. One hundred copies were printed.
The two vellum copies of Burn’s reprints produced £2. 2s. at
a sale in Jan. 1843, but two paper copies were recently priced at
50s ina bookseller’s catalogue(!) In an “Epistle to the Reader,”
prefixed to the Ist edition, Barker states that he was born and
educated in ‘“Brac-meal, in the libertie of Salop.’ And that he
was there “a freeman and Burgesse of the same Citie.” “I
am grown old,” he tells us, “and therefore am willing to set forth
my true experience that I have been gathering these fifty years.”

In “Barker’s delight,” this ‘Epistle to the reader’ is transmogrified
into an Epistle dedicatory, ‘“To the Right Honorable Edward
Lord Montague, Generall of the Navy, and one of the Lords
Commissioners of the Treasury.” It opens thus :—“Noble Lord, I
do present this my book, as I have named it, Barker’s Delight, to
your honour. I pray God send you safe home to your lady and
sweet babes. Amen, Amen.” He speaks again of his experience,
which, by some unaccountable arithmetical progression, is extended
this time, to “three-score years.” and he ends by declaring that
he takes as much pleasure in the dressing of fish, as in the taking of
them, “and to shew how I can perform it, to furnish any Lord's
table, onely with trouts, as it is furnished with flesh, for 16 or 20
dishes. And I have a desire to preserve their health (with help of
God) to go dry in their boots and shoes in angling: for age taketh
the pleasure from me.”

The body of the work begins thus:—“ Noble Lord, under favour, I
will compliment and put a case to your Honour. I met witha
man, and upon our discourse, he fell out with me, having a good
weapon but neither stomach nor skill : I say this man may come home
by Weeping Cross, I will cause the clerk to toll his knell. Itis the very
like case to the gentleman angler that goeth to the river for his
pleasure : this angler hath neither judgement nor experience, he may
come home light-laden at his :eisure.”

Barker was the first propagator of the heresy of salmon-roe. He
says: “I have found an experience of late, which you may angle with,
and take great store of fish... The bait is the roe of a salmon, or trout,
if it be a large trout, that the spawnes be anything great. If I had
but known it twenty years ago, I would have gained a hundred
pounds, onely with this bait. Iam bound in duty to divulge it to
your Honour, and not to carry it to my grave with me. The greedy
angler will murmur at me but for that I care not.” :

The “enlargement,” of the second edition consists mainly of cul-
inary recipes, and of some scraps of verse, roughly coopered and
stiff-jointed. The culinary feature is of such frequent occurrence,
that one is apt to take Barker for parcel angler, parcel cook, and to

imagine that when he doffed rod and creel it was to don the white
night cap and apron.

To this edition of Barker, some commendatory verses entitled
“Pleasant hexameter verses,” by a Mr. Hockenhull, are prefixed.
One of them runs thus :

“Markham, Ward, Lawson, dare you with Barker now compare ?”
Who was Ward? The Rev. H. N. Ellacombe suggests that he was
probably the translator of “The Secrets of Maister Alexis of Pie-
mont by him collected out of divers excellent authors, and now
newly corrected and augmented. London: printed by William
Stansby for Richard Meighen and Thomas Iones and are to be sold
at their shop with-out Temple Barre vnder St. Clement’s Church,
1615” This edition seems to be unknown to bibliographers. Two
recipes are given init: ‘To catch river fish,” and “How to take
great store of fish.” (pp. 138 and 150.)

An objection has been made that there exists no trace of Ward's
having written any substantive work on angling, but it is scarcely
an objection at all in this case, Lawson being in precisely the same
position, while even Markham was but a trader in other men’s wits,
as far as his treatises on our sport are concerned. The three men
are therefore not unfairly linked, and it must be remembered that at
the period in question (Hockenhull’s verses were probably written
before the advent of Walton and certainly of Venables) a triad of
original angling writers would have been hard to find.]

{ An extremely scarce work, if we may judge by the absence of it
from all the sale-catalogues of collectors that have come in our way.
There is no typed title. The engraved title consists of a scroll
enclosing the above and is followed by twelve plates, the subjects of
which are ‘“Hare-hunting,” “Stagg - hunting,” “Cony - catching,”
“ Otter-hunting,” “Coursing fallow deer,” “ Fox-hunting,” “ Feasant
hawking,” ‘Partridge hawking,” ‘Hern hawking,” “Angling,”
“River fishing,” and “Salmon fishing.” Under each plate is a
quatrain similar in style to that in the title.

Heineken in his “ Dictionnaire des artistes,” (Leipzig, 1788-90.
Vol. IL. p. 138) gives two sets of plates, the one of 6 including
title, the other of 7, but these, united, correspond with the above.
Bryan, in his “Dictionary of painters and engravers,” gives a set of
13 plates, including, probably, as does Heineken, the elaborately
engraved title. Strutt also refers to the work as having come under
his observation. In a copy we have seen which is probably of a
more recent issue, the title-page differs wholly from the above. It
is an engraved plate like the rest, but represents a hunting subject,
the death of the stag, and behind the group of hounds and horsemen

and athwart the trees of the background, is a scroll within which the
following verses are substituted for the original quatrain:—
“The stag rous’d before us,
Away seems to fly,
And pants to ye chorus
Of hounds in full cry;
The day’s sport when over,
Makes blood circle right,
And gives y¢ brisk lover
Fresh charms for y® night.”
Underneath the plate, but engraved also, ‘A set of prints of hunt-
ing, hawking and fishing, designed by Francis Barlow.” (n. d.)
The plates themselves are divided into two series, numbered each
from I to 6. The quatrains associated with them are the same, and
there is no other noticeable difference, except that the plates appear
to have been retouched.

Dame Julyans or Juliana Barnes, Bernes or Berners, to whom these
treatises are ascribed, is supposed to have been a daughter of Sir
James Berners of Roding Berners in the county of Essex (a favourite
of Richard the Second) who was beheaded in 1388. It is said that
she was celebrated for her learning and accomplishments and that she
held the office of Prioress of the Benedictine Nunnery of Sopwell,
near St. Albans, but as far as we can learn, these statements rest on
pure conjecture or meagre inference. ‘The first edition of her Book
of St. Albans was printed by the school-master printer of St.
Albans in 1486. ]

[Black letter. Ato Div. The woodcut of a man angling is under
the title. This edition appears to have been published as a “lytyll
plaunflet ” notwithstanding the caution of the authoress against this
course, given in the concluding paragraph of the treatise in previous
editions, which in this instance is omitted : “And for by cause that
this present treatyse sholde not come to the hondys of eche ydle

of the text and some omissions. The only known copy which was

hands of Mr. Gulston, Mr. Ratcliffe, Mr. Haworth and Mr. George

not known to Ames or Herbert, nor has a second copy of it come to
my knowledge, though there is one nearly the same printed for
Toye and Coplande. There is no date of the year of printing this
book, but it appears, from Ames, that Coplande was fined by the
Company of Stationers, in 1561, for printing these three tracts. The
present edition of Tottell’s differs in its colophon at least from
those pointed out by Herbert as printed by Coplande, and except
the reversed cut before the treatise of fishing, accords exactly
with Toye’s in its contents.” Inglis, 144, £12.]

[Black letter. “This,” says Haslewood, “is the last reprint of
the selection forming the book of Sir Tristram.” The titles and
colophons of the sixteen early editions given above are taken from
various sources. We can only answer for the accuracy of the first,
third, seventh, eighth, ninth, eleventh and fifteenth. For the others
(the books themselves being inaccessible to us) we are indebted to
Herbert, Haslewood, Pickering, and Russell Smith. We fear that
these cannot be accepted without some misgivings : our entry of
the edition with the imprint of Hery Tab differs from Haslewood in
three places, from Pickering in eight places, and from Russell
Smith in thirteen places. It is probable that two or three of these
editions were printed from the same ‘formes’ for different station-
ers, each having his name attached to his own quota of copies.
We cannot, however, specify which are in this position, and our
enquiries do not bear out the positive statement on the subject
made by a recent bibliographer. ]

[The engravings are of fish and fishing scenes, prepared to illus-

birds,” upon which Bewick was engaged at the time of his death.
Greater progress had been made with the vignettes and tail pieces
than with the fish, of which only sixteen blocks and one copper-
plate were finished. <A prospectus containing two specimens of the
engravings and printed on one side of an octavo leaf, was circulated
in 1824. “A History of British Fishes. The figures engraved on
wood, by T. Bewick,” it states, “is intended to be put to press in

1826...Subscriptions received by all booksellers and by T. Bewick
and Son, Newcastle.” Seven forms of this prospectus are enumer-
ated by Mr. Hugo, in whose “ Bewick Collector,” 1866, pp. 292-303,
will be found a detailed account of the proposed work. Should
Piscator covet one of these golden links, between his pastime and
the famous North Country engraver, let him beware of counterfeits.
Two fictitious forms have been provided for the unwary collector :
one with an indifferent copy, reversed, of the ‘Old angler,’ and the
other with a bad copy of the vignette of a man fishing, both taken
from the “ Birds.”

The following illustrations are used in copies of the genuine
prospectus : Samlet and Old gentleman fishing on horseback ; Sam-
let and Blind fisherman and bull (“Birds”); Lump-sucker and
Herons fishing ; Lump-sucker and Cows fishing ; Dace and Blind
fisherman (as above); Ballan wrasse and “Smelling” (eels in dead

precise and clear. Some parts of the “Catechism” follow the
“Art of angling” word for word; others are dissimilar. The earlier

ticipating the method of the sumptuous volume, for which anglers

[A slip-shod and negligent work, devoid of all real utility. A
mere farrago of matter relevant and irrelevant, of indiscriminate
sweepings from miscellaneous sources, of quotations incorrectly
given and of so-called original passages the vagueness and uncertainty
of which rob them ofall weight and value. Names and dates are
seldom given, or are given inaccurately : thus, ‘‘Gower’s Confessione
Amatis, 1554,” (three consecutive errors!) for Gower’s ‘“Con-
fessio amantis,” 1493; Llewellyn’s “New Miracles,” 1646, for “Men

1827 for 1729; The “North Country Angler,” 1838, for 1786, and
by way of culmination, Walton’s “Angler,” 1613 for 1653!

But the crowning blunder of the book occurs at pp. 101-4 wherein
the author describes at some length what he conceives to be the
“Piscatory Eclogues” of Sannazarius, and which are, really, those
of Moses Browne! “The Piscatory Eclogues,” he asserts, “are well
known,” and then proceeds to inform us that they are zéve in number.
He gives the subject of each with extracts, and at pp. 179-181
describes the same poems over again, repeats the subjects, but, this
time attributes them to the rightful author!

Mr. Blakey’s volume, it is but fair to add, is redeemed from utter
worthlessness, by the excellent ‘“ Bibliographical catalogue of writers

John Raccel Smith.]

[Black letter. 8 leaves, with six woodcuts, (one of which is
thrice, and two, twice repeated) and the printer’s device which
occupies the last page. This tract is in the collection of Mr.
Denison, whose translation into English will be found under
his name.

It came from the press of Matthias Van der Goes, who printed at
Antwerp from 1472 to 1491, but it also contains the printer’s mark of
Godfridus Bach, who married the widow of Van der Goes. The
book was probably in type at the death of the latter, and may be
assigned, Mr. Denison suggests, to the year 1492. In date it would
therefore have the priority of “The Book of St. Albans,” as far as
fishing is concerned ; that is, as a printed book, for Jean de Four-
nival’s “ La vielle, ou les dernieres amours d’Ovide,” takes prece-
dence of both, as an early record of the sport. It contains 26
chapters, of a few lines each, giving recipes for artificial baits,
unguents and pastes, and at the close two pages are given to the
periods at which certain fish are “at their best.”

Another edition of this tract, probably a few years later in date,
follows. ]

Dit Boecxken leert hoe men mach voghelen vang-
hen metten handen. Ende hoe men mach visschen vanghen
metten handen. Ende oeck andersins. Ende oeck tot wat
tyden vanden iare dat een yegheliick visch tsynen besten is.

[Black letter; 8 leaves, adorned with wood-cuts. From an article
on the above tract, which appeared in the “Annales du Bibliophile
Belge et Hollandais,” (1865) is extracted the following :

“Tl est fort étonnant que l’on ne connaisse aucun ouvrage de
Chasse en flamand, sortant de quelque officine typographique de
Gouda, de Deventer, ou de Gand. Il faut croire que les gentils-
hommes de Flandre et de Hollande se servaient des traités cynége-
tiques de France ou d’Allemagne. Voici, cependant, un petit livre
appartenant a cette branche de la science et écrit en langue Flamande;
mais il n’est pas 4 usage des barons et des chevaliers. Car, a coté
de la chasse et de la péche seigneuriales, il y avait la petite venérie
prolétaire que les possesseurs du sol abandonnaient au pauvre
monde; la chasse des petits oiseaux et la péche du fretin. Cette
chasse et cette péche 1a avaient aussi leurs preceptes, plus subtils,
plus savants peutétre que ceux du grand art du “Roy Modus et de
la Reyne Racio.” Le petit livre, dont nous parlons, veritable
trouvaille litéraire, porte pour titre

Il sort, probablement, des presses de W. Vorsterman, a Anvers, et
remonte aux premiéres anneés du xvie siecle...La souscription finale
est “Hier eyndet een boecxken dat seer profitelic is voer allen |
vischers, ende vogheleers.”

BIBLIOTHECA PISCATORIA. 37

On y trouve des recettes infallibles pour prendre des oiseaux 4 la
main et des methodes pour faire des péches miraculeuses. Ainsi le
chapitre iv est intitulé:—‘“ Hoe men mette handen mach vischen
vaughen.” Ce qui n’empéche pas l’auteur de traiter de la péche au
filet, 4 la ligne, au panier, efc. Plusieurs de ces recettes sont fort
curieuses et peut étre en trouverait on dans le nombre qui seraient
utiles méme aujourd’hui que la science a fait tant de progrés. Les
figures sur bois representent des pécheurs et chasseurs employant
quelques uns des engins décrits dans le petit livre. C’est tout un
coin dévoilé de la vie du peuple dans notre pays il y a trois siécles.
Ace titre elles offrent un interét spécial. Nous n’avons jamais
rencontré la mention de cette rareté de la bibliographie; et jusqu’ &
nouvel ordre nous croyons que cette rareté est unique.”

made (and badly) from Willughby. “In the angling part,” he
says, “1 had the assistance of Mr. Chetwynd, who is allowed by all
to have great skill.” Thus disingenuously giving his thanks to
Chetham, passages of whose “ Vade mecum ” are copied textually.

BIBLIOTHECA PISCATORIA.

I. Angling seasons ; or, the weather. II. Night fishing; or the
nocturnal. III. The river enemies. IV. The sea swains. V. Re-
nock’s despair. VI. The angler’s songs. WII. The strife. VIII.
The fowlers. IX. The complaints ; or, the friends.

Each eclogue is dedicated to a friend or patron. The seventh
and eighth eclogues are not piscatorial in their subjects. “The
strife” is a celebration of English rivers, ‘The fowlers”” is exclu-
sively on fowling.

The author informs us that these poems were produced in his
three and twentieth year. They may be accepted as a very credit-
able production for so juvenile an age. _ Virgil and Theocritus
appear to have been Browne’s models. The first edition was an-
onymous. When the second edition was preparing for publication,
one of the Eclogues, “ The Nocturnal,” was printed in the “Gen-
tleman’s Magazine,” vol. viii. (1738), with the hope that it would
prove “an agreeable entertainment and hasten the compleating his
subscription.”

Browne was born in 1703. He became a pen-cutter, but could
ply the pen as well as cut it, for by his poetical contributions he
helped to maintain the literary reputation of the most popular
periodical of the day, the “Gentleman’s Magazine,” published by
Cave at St. John’s Gate. In 1723, Moses Browne published two
dramatic pieces, ‘“ Polidus or destressed love,” a tragedy, and
“All-bedevilled,” a farce. He soon became (we are told) “ the lion
and dictator of a club of literary wits.” At this time he came into
contact with Dr. Johnson, and their meeting was the beginning of
a friendship between them. Eventually, Browne took orders, and
was promoted to the Vicarage of Olney, Bucks. Besides the above
works, he wrote “Percy Lodge, a poem,” and “ Sunday thoughts,”
in blank verse. He died September 13th, 1787, aged 84.]

[ The passage which brings this book within the angler’s ring-
fence is the following :—
“ Now as an angler melancholy standing

Upon a greene banke yeelding roome for landing,

A wriggling yellow worme thrust on his hooke,

Now in the midst he throws, then in a nooke,

Here puls his line, there throwes it in againe,

Mendeth his Cork and Bait, but all in vaine,

He long stands viewing of the curled streame ;

At last a hungry Pike, or well grown Breame,

Snatches the worme, and hasting fast away,

BIBLIOTHECA PISCATORIA. 45

He knowing it a fish of stubborne sway,

Puls up his rod, but soft (as having skill),
Wherewith the hooke fast holds the Fishes gill,
Then all his line he freely yieldeth him,

Whilst furiously all vp and downe doth swim
Th’ ensnared Fish, here on the top doth scud,
There underneath the banks, then in the mud;
And with his franticke fits so scares the shole,
That each one takes his hyde, or starting hole :
By this the Pike, cleane wearied underneathe
A willow lyes, and pants (if Fishes breath)
Wherewith the Angler gently puls-him to him,
And least his haste might happen to vndoe him,
Layes down his rod, then takes the line in hand,
And by degrees, getting the Fish to land,
Walkes to another poole : at length is winner
Of such a dish as serues him for his dinner.”

From the modus operandi of the above, we may conclude that
Browne was, himself, a brother of the angle.

The earlier editions of the “ Pastorals” are now scarce, but wher-
ever opportunity permits, Piscator should select original copies of
such works, rather than modern reprints of them. There is a savour
about an old angling book, which no novel revival can impart.
Who, for instance, would choose to have Nobbes on cream-laid
paper and in elegant type? And what true book connoisseur would
prefer a ‘Compleat angler” of the present day, however splendid
the getting up, to the quaint little pocket volume of 1653, thumb-
marked by dead and gone anglers, and fraught with subtle associa-
tions of its time ?]

British fishes.” [1873]. The author refers to the latter in his
preface, as the “first edition,’ but the book has been rewritten
throughout. The neat woodcuts of the previous work are again
used, but so badly printed, that the fish are scarcely recognisable. ]

Among the “recettes infallibles,’ to be found in these volumes
and also in the Flemish “Boecxken,” is the following “wonderfull
bayte for Trowtes and Thymallos,” here given in the words of John
Stocker (“ Praxis aurea.” p. 92.) Possibly it is one of those which
the Belgian bibliophile thinks may prove useful at the present day.
“ Draw a black hen, put into the belly of it 3 yolks of Eggs, and as
much saffron as a pease, then sowe up the hole and bury the Hen
in a dunghill of Hors dung for 3 or 4 days, till it putrifie or rott,
and there will appeare little yellow worms in it...It is a wonderful
experiment.” ]

[ Dr. Dibdin says (‘Bibliomania,’ 1811, p. 97): ‘“ Catalogues
are to bibliographers what Reports are to lawyers—not to be read
through from end to end—but to be consulted on doubtful
points.” He stigmatises (p. 35) a confessed destroyer of book-
catalogues as ‘fan Omar,” but our modern librarians, “in confer-
ence,” would probably write down the Doctor as “ Stultus,” if we
may judge by a recent occurrence at a great library in the City.
When priced and with purchasers’ names, the importance of cata-
logues both as standards of value and means of tracing the pro-
prietorship of rare and curious books is sufficiently obvious. ]

[The first edition was published anonymously. ‘The author
hath forborne,” he says in his preface, “to affix his name; not that
he is ashamed to own it, but wishes the reader to regard things,
more than empty names.”

Chetham’s prefaces are in Diogenes’ vein, curt and caustic; he
escapes from the category of manual makers, and takes rank as one
of the original writers on the sport. He is indebted, indeed, to his
forerunners, but acknowledges it; he improves on their systems,
and calls attention to the fact. He is never servile, nor plagiaristic,
always honest, sometimes a little surly.

There are said to be two editions of 1700. The one noted above
is a paginary reprint of the second. It has a rude woodcut frontis-
piece, in a border, headed ‘‘ The Compleat Fisher,” and a still ruder
leaf of eight fish, disposed in eight separate cuts on one page.” The
preface is dated from ‘Smedley near Manchester in Lancashire,
Nov. 26, 1688.” ]

[Russell Smith attributes this work to William Henry Ireland,
“best known as the forger of the Shakspeare Papers.” Lowndes does
not cite it by name in his list of that author’s publications, but states
that “he wrote a variety of poems and novels.” The work is incom-
plete, consisting of but a single book. ‘The author will, by no
means,’ he says, ‘be averse to make a more complete work of The
Angler hereafter, should the public encourage it.” From its remain-
ing stationary at this point it probably lacked encouragement.
With an amusing complacency, the writer assures us “ There will
not be found any similarity between the five books of the Halieutics
of Oppian and his poem, any more than between it and “The Secrets
of Angling,” a poem in three books, published by a certain J. D.
Esq. 1613, and which, though called a poem (!) would doubtless
have been as pleasing and as useful, and would have taught those
secrets which it professes to disclose, fully as well, had it not been
‘done into verse.’ |

which characterize the true sportsman. Geniality and kindliness of
heart appear in every page. All his instructions in Highland sports
are admirable ; the sportsman’s keen zest in capturing the denizens
of moor and loch being strongly tempered with the naturalist’s love
for observing their habits and modes of life. Mr. Colquhoun’s

practical knowledge of sporting and fishing, however, is superior to
his attainments as a scientific naturalist. His chapters on salmon

[ The author, a protestant divine, born in Moravia in 1592, was a
very earnest grammarian and attempted several improvements in
education. This work, which was originally published at Lesna in
Poland, in 1631, under the title, ‘“Janua Linguarum,” isa sort of
encyclopedic phrase-book, each of its 100 chapters, containing the
words used in a separate art, science, or trade, and explaining them
by means of the context. A previous edition, in Latin, English
and French, is dated, London, 1639: ‘ The gate of tongues unlocked
and opened, or else a seminary or seed-plot of all tongues and
sciences.” In dealing with the art of fishing, he says :

“A Fisher laieth wait for fishes ;.the greater ones swimming at
the top he striketh with a fish-spear; the lesser ones swimming
against the stream he allureth with rushy bow-nets, sunk weels
(whereinto when they are once gotten they cannot get ‘forth :) the
deeper ones he draweth out of the river with a purs-net or tramel :
out of a lake with a sweep-net and drags (which sinck by reason of
the plumets hanged at the bottom, and flot by reason of the corks
on the top; but they have a different wideness of the mashes ac-
cording to the bigness of the fishes :) part of that which is catched
he selleth ; part he putteth up in repositories, from whence when
there is need hee taketh them out with a ware-net : part he picketh
for salt fish. An Angler fisheth with a hook whereon having put a
bait, whatsoever fish being allured, biteth at it, hee is taken.” |

Nicholas Cox is of the superstitious, astrological, necromantical
order of angling writers. He makes us acquainted with divers
miraculous streams and unaccountable fishes—with a certain river
for instance “near Harwood, in Bedfordshire, which in the year of
our Lord 1399 (a little before the civil wars between York and Lan-
caster burst forth) of a sudden stood still, and divided itself asunder,
so that men might pass three miles together on foot down the midst
of the channel, leaving the waters, like a wall, behind them.” And
again, ofa “river in Judea, that runs very swiftly all the six days of
the week but resteth on the seventh, which is the Jewish Sabbath.”
While, as a puzzle to ichthyologists, he relates seriatim, how, in the
year of our Lord 1180, near Orford in Suffolk “a fish was taken in
the perfect form of a man.” How “he was kept by Bartholomew de
Glanville, in the castle of Orford, above half a year, but, at length,
not being carefully looked to, how he stole to the sea and was
never seen after.” “ He never spake,” we are informed—“ but
would eat any meat that was given him, especially fish’ (the-

BIBLIOTHECA PISCATORIA. 69

cannibal!) and also—‘ that he was often led to church, but never”
(heterodox fish !) ‘ showed any sign of adoration.”

This work drew down on its author an indignant protest from
Ray the Naturalist, in his preface to Willughby’s “Ornithology,”
(1678). “Here,” he says “I cannot but reflect upon the author of
a late English book, entituled Zhe Gentleman's Recreation. For
having had occasion to examine and compare books on_ these
subjects, I find that all he hath considerable concerning Fowling is
taken out of the aforesaid book of Markham’s [“Hunger's Prevention
or the Art of Fowling”] and yet hath he not to my remembrance
made any mention of his author : what he hath of Hawking is like-
wise an epitome of Zuréervill’s collections, with some addition out of
Latham's Falconry, without acknowledgement that all was borrowed.
I doubt not but I could have traced him in his other discourses
of Hunting and Fishing had I had leisure or will to compare his
book with Zurdervill’s, Walton’s and other treatises of those subjects.
I do not blame him for epitomizing, but for suppressing his authors’
names, and publishing their works as his own, insomuch that not
only the vulgar, but even learned men have been deceived by him,
so that they have looked upon him as a considerable writer of
extraordinary skill in such arts ‘and exercises, and one that had
advanced and improved them. By the way therefore it may not be
amiss to caution learned men that they be not too hasty or lavish
in their public commendations of new books before they have taken
the pains to compare them with former treatises on those subjects,
lest they render themselves ridiculous by publishing those for
advancers of knowledge, who are indeed meer plagiaries and
compilers of other mens’ works.”

Here is righteous indignation! But we fear most makers of
angling manuals deserve the severity of Ray’s strictures to the full
as much as Master Nicholas Cox. They are dishonest borrowers,
as we have had occasion to prove. Old Burton's motto to his
“ Anatomy of Melancholy,” omne meum, nihil meum, might be em-
ployed by the fraternity at large. ]

[This poem is also noticed, with large citations, in an article in the
“Censura Literaria,” 1809, vol. x. p. 266, which was appropriated
by Daniel and inserted in the supplement to his “Rural Sports,”
1813. Its authorship was set at rest in 1811, by the evidence of the
books of the Stationers’ Company, in which the work is entered as
being by “John Dennys Esquier.” Sir Henry Ellis gives the extract
in the edition edited by him in that year. Walton had previously
ascribed it to John Davors, and others (Howlett among them) to
Donne and Davies. The volume contains commendatory verses
signed “Io Daues,” and is dedicated by the stationer R. J. to Mr.
John Harborne of Tackley, in the County of Oxford. Beloe says of
the book that “perhaps there does not exist in the circle of English
literature a rarer volume.” Sir John Hawkins confessed “he could
never get a sight of it.”

There is every reason to suppose that Mr. John Dennys, who is
shown by the pedigree of the Dennys family to have died at
Pucklechurch in 1609, is the real author of the “Secrets,” not the
grandson of Sir Walter Dennys, put forward for that honour, by
Sir Harris Nicolas. No date is associated with Sir Walter Dennys,
but on referring to a more detailed pedigree from the same source,
it appears that his eldest son, Sir William Dennys, “founded a guild
in the year 1520.” We may therefore reasonably assign his birth
to the latter part of the fifteenth century, or to the very beginning
of the sixteenth. These premises are borne out by the fact that
John, his second brother (author of the ‘Secrets,’ according to Sir
Harris Nicolas) left a son, Hugh Dennys, who died in 1559, and at
no immature age, since he was married and had four offspring. If,
therefore, Sir Harris Nicolas’s assumption be correct, we must
ascribe the poem to the early part, or, at the latest, to the middle
of the sixteenth century, whereas its style and general character

BIBLIOTHECA PISCATORIA.

belong, assuredly, to a later period. Collateral evidence, is to be
found in the fact that R. J. (Roger Jackson) in his dedication, does
not throw the poem far back, in a posthumous sense, but merely
says :—

“This poem being sent unto me to be printed after the death of
the author, who intended to have done it, in his life, but was
prevented by death,” &c. &c.

Had the ‘ Secrets’ been in existence half a century, some allusion
would surely have been made to the circumstance.

From an article (by T. Westwood) published in the “ Angler’s
Note-book,” 1880, pp. 181-5, the following appreciation of John
Dennys’ poem may be extracted :

“The English poets of the Art of Angling perplex us neither with
their multitude, nor their magnitude. To some three or four of
them may be assigned a place—shall we say midway, by courtesy ?
—on the ledges of Parnassus ; the rest are innocent of all altitudes
whatsoever, except those of Grub-street garrets, or the stilts of an
absurd vanity.

Foremost among the select few, by right of seniority, and perhaps
by poetic right as well, we have “I. D.,” who in the cool dawn of
the seventeenth century, and when the Elizabethan men were
passing, one by one, into the shadow, “sang to the echo,” (for he
seems to have had no other audience in his own day and generation)
these “Secrets of Angling,” himself being destined to become a
greater secret than any he revealed.

His publisher, “ R. J.” (Roger Jackson) states in his dedication
of the poem to Mr. John Harborne of Tackley, that the author
“intended to have printed it in his life, but was prevented by
death.” Other motives of reticence, however, besides that final one,
may have had their weight ; some faintness of heart, for instance,
and some wisdom of discretion. The epoch was a trying one for
the minor muse. The Elizabethan bards, as I have said, were
dying out, but the national air still vibrated to their divine singing—
the national heart was still at fever-heat, with “Fairy Queens,”
and “Passionate Pilgrims,” with “heavenly Unas,” and heroic
“Lucreces.” It would scarcely have been strange, ifa poet un-
known to fame, had recoiled from bringing into competition with
these and such as these, a simple song of bleak and bream. But
whatever the real motive may have been, I. D. ended by closing his
eyes on all the shows of this world, if not a “mute,” at least an
“inglorious” poet, and unconsoled, perchance, by the conviction
that his modest rhymes would be brought into favour and accep-
tance, at a fitting time.

The only contemporary recognition of I. D., that I am acquainted
with, is in the ‘Pleasures of Princes.” This scarce tract is com-
monly considered to be the transmigration of the “Secrets” into
prose. The transmuting process (for there can be little doubt of
the correctness of the general surmise) was effected by no unskil-
ful hand, and without too much sacrifice of the precious metal of
the original. Sir Philip Sidney’s ordeal has, indeed, seldom been
undergone, with so little deterioration. The quaint character of
the poem is preserved in the prose version and the passages added
( especially the introduction ) have a striking merit of their own. -

BIBLIOTHECA PISCATORIA. 75

It is proof of the vitality of Dennys’ verse, that it retains its
strength, sweetness and savour in its more sober form. Those
curious in parallels may compare “The Qualities of an Angler,”
in the third book of the poem, with chapter 2. (its corresponding
passage ) of the “ Pleasures of Princes.”

It is not needful that I should enter on a critical appreciation of
this little poem, the finest passages of which are well known and
highly esteemed. Thus much, however, may be said, that, so
replete is it, in its higher moods, with subtlety of rhythm, sweet-
ness of expression, and elevation of thought and feeling, that even
from the angling point of view, we cannot but consider it a notable
piece of condescension, and marvel at the devotion of so much real
poetic genius to a theme so humble. With the exception of the
‘Compleat Angler,’ no higher compliment than this poem has been
paid to the sport. Subsequent rhymers, indeed, have achieved
analogous feats, but from other heights, or rather from other depths
—witness the “Innocent Epicure,” a polished piece of artificiality,
and often grotesque, by force of polish; and “ The Anglers, Fight
Dialogues in Verse,” by Scott of Ipswich, in which the technical
and humorous are dexterously enough interwoven ; but such trifling
in verse, as these and other poems of their kind display, is not to be
confounded for an instant with the art and heart-work of John
Dennys, (the Angler’s “Glorious John” ) who could not have been
more in earnest, had he sung of men and angels ; who drapes him-
self in his singing robes on the very threshold of his theme, as by
an assured vocation, and only doffs them with his ultimate line :—

“ And now we are arivéd at the last,
In wishéd harbour where we meane to rest ;
And make an end of this our journey past ;
Here then in quiet roade I think it best
We strike our sailes and stedfast Anchor cast,
For now the sunne low setteth in the west.”

And “in quiet roade,” in the grey old aisle of Pucklechurch, the
poet sleeps his sleep, not too far distant from his beloved Boyd,
that with “ crooked winding way,” past cliff and meadow,

oe-Seg WES mother Avon runneth soft to seek.” ]

[The last named edition was enlarged by Dr. John Davy, brother
of the author. Some woodcuts are substituted for the engraved
views. ‘Salmonia’ ranks high in the scale of angling literature—
higher we should say,—(if it were not for the audacity of the dictum)
than it really merits. It lacks the freshness of heart and simple
naiveté of style that we look for, first of all, ina genuine Angling
book. The first and second editions were anonymous. The illus-
trations were from the author’s own drawings. Sir Humphrey
Davy, was born at Penzance, 1778, and died 1829. ‘Salmonia’ was
reviewed by Sir Walter Scott in the Quarterly Review, 1828. p. 503.]

coloured by hand, and Gosden has noted in pencil, that “only two

Powlys churche yarde. B.L. [ Paris, 1520?] 4.

[ The work consists of 164 unnumbered folios, including title and
table of contents. The register is in fours. The Latin original
“ Dyalogus creaturarum moralizatus,” was printed “ Per gerardum
leev in opido goudensi, 1480,” fol., and is of peculiar interest to the
angling bibliophilist as it contains, among other woodcuts, the earli-
est known illustration in a printed book, of an angler using a float.
This is prefixed to the forty-fourth dialogue “ De lucio et trincha
dyalogus.” The work went through numerous editions abroad, be-
fore it was translated into English and was even then not printed in
this country. It is undoubtedly the production of a foreign press.
Mr. Haslewood in his reprint of 1816 quotes a note communicated
to him by the Rey. T. F. Dibdin in which the latter says “ Although
mention is made that this book is to be sold in St. Paul’s Church
Yard, yet I am inclined to think it was printed in France by the
type and blooming letters; the former being much like Thielman
Kerver’s, and of the latter some are very uncommon.”

Perfect copies of the Latin original of 1480 and of the English
translation, to which is assigned in the British Museum catalogue
the conjectural date of 1520, are extremely rare. Both however are
in the National Collection. ]

1753. 8°.; Chalmers’ “English Poets,” vol. iv. 1810. 8°.;
“Library of old authors.” 1856, efc. 8°.

[ Drayton’s poems contain many allusions to fish and fishing. In
the 6th, 25th, and 26th songs of the “Polyolbion,” for instance; in
his “ Shepherd’s Serena ;” his 7th “Eclogue,” and his 6th “ Nym-
phal.” The latter has never been included in the long list of sup-
posed ante-types of Walton’s “Compleat Angler,” and yet the
subject of it is a discussion between a woodman, a fisherman and a
shepherd, respecting the superior merits of the vocation of each.

Lamb eulogises Drayton affectionately as the panegyrist of his
native earth, “ who has gone over her soil (in his Polyolbion ) with
the fidelity of a herald, and the painful love of a son, who has not
left a rivulet (so narrow that it may be stept over) without honour-
able mention, and has animated hills and streams with life and pas-
sion above the dreams of old mythology.” ‘The first edition of the
“Polyolbion” appeared in 1613.]

[If Piscator be Waltonian, in the enthusiastic sense, he will not
fail to include the above in his collection. Josuah Sylvester, in his
time, was called the “silver tongued,” but his fame has a little faded
with the years. The fifth day of the “Diuine weekes and workes”
of Du Bartas records the creation of sea and river fish, in the cata-
logue of which we find some oddities—the “ Whirl-about,” for
instance, the “ Physeter,” and the “ Smell-strong-many-foot.”]

go abroad into the fields, and one, named Laurence, proposes
fishing ; but having no worms, Bartholus objects the want of them,
till Laurence tells him how he may get some. The dialogue is
very natural and descriptive.

“Zau. I should like to go a fishing; I have a neat hook. Barth.
But where will you get bait? Za. There are earth worms every-
where to be had. Barth. So there are, if they would but creep out
of the ground to you. Zauw. I will make a great many thousands
jump out presently. Barth, How? By witchcraft? Zau. You
shall see the art. Fill this bucket with water: break those green
shells of walnuts to pieces, and put them into it; wet the ground
with the water. Now mind a little. Do you see them coming
out? Barth. I see a miracle; I believe the armed men started
out of the earth, after this manner, from the serpent’s teeth that
were sown.” ]

Charles Estienne or Stevens was a member of the celebrated

printer and physician. This work appears to have been published
after he had ceased to print. The treatises, of which it is composed,
were originally written in Latin and collected under the title,
Predium rusticum, The author afterwards translated them into
French under the title given above. John Liebault, by whom the
work was augmented, was his son in law. Liebault was “ the first,
it is believed,” says the author of ‘“ Wet days at Edgewood,” to
introduce “to the European public, some of the mysteries of the
tobacco plant.” The first edition of the Pradium rusticum is

[ The “Eclogs” have separate title and pagination. Copies on
large paper have a small engraving at the back of the title and an
engraved plate, with verses addressed to Edward Benlowes, before
the “ Piscatorie Eclogs.” The book ends with a poem by Quarles,
addressed “ To my deare Friend, the Spencer of this age.” Quarles
also ushers in the “ Purple Island” with a copy of verses in his
usual quaint and symbolical style. Here, as in “Sicelides,” though
some of the interlecutors are fishermen, the inner meaning of the
poem, is rather amorous than piscatorial. |

Hyppolyte Cocheris. Paris, Aubry, 1861. 12°.

[ Translated, or rather, imitated from a Latin poem De Vetulé,
attributed to Richard de Fournival, and supposed to have been
written in the thirteenth or fourteenth century. The translator,
Jean Lefevre, was born in the early part of the fourteenth century,
at Rassons-sur-Matz. His work, until recently, only existed in MS.
(of which there are two copies in the Bibliothéque Nationale at
Paris): but has now been included by Aubry in his “Tresor des
piéces rares ou incdites.” The passage in “ La Vieille,” which treats
of fishing 1s headed “Comment Ovide tendait aux Poissons,” and
consists of 68 lines. De Fournival’s work cannot but be interesting
to the angling bibliophile, as showing that more than four hundred
years ago (and probably about a hundred and fifty years before the
date of the “ Book of St. Albans,”) most of the modern modes of
fishing were practised ; for instance: the worm, the fly, the torch
and spear, the night-line, the eel-basket and fork, efc.

The poem was formerly attributed to Ovid and a story was cur-
rent that a copy had been discovered in his tomb. It was first
printed, probably at Rome, about 1470, under the title : “ P. Ouidii
Nasionis liber de uetula”; again, Colonie, 1479. fol.; and after-
wards with a work of Vigellus: “ Brunellus Vigelli, et vetula Ovidii,
seu opuscula duo auctorum incertorum, ef.” Wolferbyti, 1662. 8vo.]

Publishers, London, by William Gilpin, Prebendary of Salisbury,
and the author of “ Forest scenery.”

Vicar’s Hill, April 11, 1797.

A little before you and I were connected, I put into Mr. White's
hands, through Mr. Gisborne, 3 little dialogues Ox the Amusements
of Clergymen. The edition is now pretty nearly expended. When
I heard last, only 50 copies remained. I could wish therefore to
put a second edition into your hands, which will be ready, I sup-
pose, by the time the remaining 50 are disposed of. If you have
no objection, you will be so good as to let me know, and I will send
you an improved copy to print from. As the subject is rather offen-
sive, I do not care to put my name to it, though I find it is men-
tioned in one of the reviews. But it is one thing to own, and
another to be suspected. Two or three of my particular friends only,
Col. Mitford, Mr. Gisborne and one or two more, know it certainly.
I number you among them, and you will be so good as say, if any-
body trouble their head with asking, that you are not at liberty to
tell. You will print it as we agreed about our other concerns.

I am, efc., Will. Gilpin.”

The little book contains some interesting passages relative to
Angling and Izaak Walton. The edition of 1820, while bearing the
name of Stillingfleet on the title-page, is claimed by J. G. who signs
the preface. It is dedicated to Lord Eldon, by “ The author,” who
dates from ‘15, St. James’s Place, Hampstead Road, 3 August,
1820.” |

Urquhart, of Cromerty. It contains abundant proof, however, that
in the Academy of Angling its author had taken a high degree, and
that he could use the rod, on an occasion, for other w hippings than
those of pool and stream, his flagellation of “honest Izaac” gives
smarting evidence. This latter insult no contemporary voice was
raised to vindicate, but Time, with its ‘“‘revenges,’” has wrought out
an ample and emphatic atonement.

Franck is the first English writer on angling who describes that
mystical fish, the burbolt (see page 279 of the original work, and
330 of the reprint). “To search for him in Trent,” says he
“ striving against a stream, is like to Queén Elizabeth's Scogen, that
at the sun’s meridian (with a candle and lanthorn), sought up and
down for an honest man.”

There is also an interesting mention, in ‘ Northern Memoirs,”
page 37 of the preface, and again page 177 of the work (reprint), of
three noted anglers of the time, Merrils, Fawlkner and Owldham,
whom some bibliophiles suppose to have written three several
angling works, since lost to the world. Others, on the contrary,
incline to the belief, that, in the passages in question, Franck merely
intended to set up an antithesis (touching the comparative merits of
tuition) between the speculative book-writing angler, on the one
hand, and the practical, experienced wielder of the rod, innocent of
ink, but well up to all the devices of the sport, on the other. He
speaks of “collections and manuals,” it is true, but there is nothing
to show that these were more than the occasional memoranda which
that class of men are in the habit of jotting down, for their private
guidance,—while of Owldham he says distinctly, that his “Collec-
tions and experiments were lost with himself.”

A notice of the work will be found in the “ Retrospective
Review,” vol. viii. pp. 170-194, and also in the “Censura Literaria.”
T he extreme rarity of the original edition is somewhat exaggerated.

{ Mr. Haslewood thought that there was probably an earlier
edition, from the date of the licence for the press in the Stationers’
Registers, which stands, ‘ with allowance, Oct. 20th, 1674. Roger
L’Estrange.” No earlier edition, however, is known. At page 14
the author alludes to barbel frequenting London Bridge, and his
“Method of fishing in Hackney River,” is preluded thus: “ Then
go to Mother Gibert’s, at the Flower de Luce at Clapton, near
Hackney, and whilst you are drinking a pot of ale bid the maid
make you two or three pennyworth of ground-bait, and some paste
(which they do very neatly and well.)” At page 40, he adds, “‘ There
is an excellent stand in the second meadow on the left hand, be-
yond the ferry, under a willow tree, in the midst of the meddow, by
the water side.” Amongst the necessary equipments of an angler
he recommends, “A good coat for all weather ; an apron to put
your ground-bait, stones and paste in ; a basket to put your fish in ;
aneat rod of about 4 foot long, in several pieces one within
another ;...and, if you have a boy to go along with you, a good
neat’s tongue and a bottle of Canary should not be wanting : to
the enjoyment of which I leave you.” Ina subsequent edition the
title became as follows :]}

[ In these editions there is no alteration in the body of the work
beyond the insertion of a paragraph entitled, “To fox fish.” The
method consists in the use of what he calls “ Oculus India Berries,”

license from the owners, least the whipping-post or pillery be their
reward.” Fox’s reprint has a frontispiece borrowed from Lowndes’

[ Black letter. A—t in fours. A reproduction of the Book of

pages to “Fowling” and to “Fishing.” The latter: “A briefve
treatis of fishing, with the art of angling. Wherein is contained
the perfect making of all maner of implements appertaining to that
exercise: the diuers and severall baytes for euery kind of fish, with
the best times of the yeare for taking of them.” The writer says
“T meane to discribe these disportes and games, to find the best of
them as truely as I could, and although the right noble and worthie
Duke of Yorke, late maister of the game, hath discribed this arte of
fishing, and the rest of these pleasures and disportes.” This asser-
tion, respecting the Duke of York, stands unconfirmed. The trea-
tise of “ Fowling,” now first added to the book of Sir Tristram is
chiefly copied, without acknowledgement, from “Batman vppon
Bartholome his booke de proprietatibus rerum,” 1582, where it
forms the introduction to the twelfth book, “ De avibus in general.”

Whether this writer be identical with the R. H. of “The school of

which were wanting in the former editions. By Captaine
Garvase Markham. London, R. More, 1631. 4°.; afterwards
as:

bandry. In four books: I. Of the farm or mansion house...
If. Of gardens. orchards and woods. III. Ot breeding...all
manner of cattel. IV. Of poultry, fowle, fish and bees with

Bb. G,, and C. M. ingenious artists. London, ‘Thomas Basset,
in St. Dunstan’s Church-yard in Fleet-stieet, 1658. pp. vi.
385. 4°.

{In the editions edited by Markham, seven or eight pages on
angling are added to the brief treatise on fish-ponds of the original
work. Piscinarius disappears, but in the other parts of the book
the interlocutors remain as in former editions. Sir Harris Nicolas,
in his biography of Walton, says, ‘There is so much resemblance
between many passages of Walton's work and Heresbachius’ Hus-
bandry, by Googe, which was first printed in 1577, as to render it
probable he was s indebted to that work for some of his ideas.” This
may have been the case; but the “ Compleat Angler” is more
closely allied, in the mechanism, at least, to the “ De venatione,
aucupio et piscatione.” This work was the fruits of its author's
leisure, and was written at his country house during his occasional
retirement from the exigencies of his life at court. It consists of a
dialogue, in which the interlocutors bear names significative of their
diflerent. vocations. Philotherus opens the conversation with an
eulogium of the sport of hunting. Zagws follows and discants on
the pastime of hunting the hare, the fox, the badger and the ceer.
Elaphovrous passes in review the chase of the stag, the wild boar,
etc. Ffalicus takes the greatest share in the col.oquy, and treats ot
the different modes of fishing, and the various kinds of fish. The
close parallel between the outer form of the above and Walton's
Angler must be evident enough.

Barnaby Googe's translation of the “ Foure bookes of husbandry
is very quaint, poetical and charming. Gvuoge was a poet by voca-
tion, and the author of “ Eclogs, Epitaphes, and Sonnettes, newl)
written,’ 1563, of which only three copies are known to exist. He
also produced other works, original and translated, among the latte
a translation of the “Regnum Papisticum” of Naogeorgus, recentl)
reprinted at the Chiswick Press, by Mr. R. C. Hope, (with memo:
of Googe), from the only perfect copy which is known. Som

[ One of the rare local books. Under the hea.t of “roach,” the
author says : “It is really surprising to see the soals of roach that
come up the river to Fordwich and Sturry ; in spawning time the
number is so very great, that it is customar y for the mayor, jurats,
or some of the freemen of that town, and likewise the gentlemen of
Sturry, to catch them with a drag net and make presents of them to
their acquaintances and poor inhabitants of Fordwich and Sturry.
In the year 1782, Mr. Woodrouff, Mr. Pidduck, two of the jurats,
and some of the Freemen, did catch in one draught, one hundred
and twenty bushels of roach, and many of them weighed two
pounds, and some upwards of three pounds a fish.” At page 20
are some ‘“ Lines by a gentleman, relative to fishing, which are too
beautiful to be omitted by an angler.” ]

mencement of a new series of this magazine in the following year,
with a different style of contribution, may account for the abrupt
termination. Kett was drowned, while bathing, in 1825. He was
perpetual curate of Hykeham, Lincolnshire, and was eminent as a

by the publication of a novel with that title in 1809. ]

The angler; a poem, in ten cantos. Comprising proper

H. Burn, Maiden-lane, Convent Garden, 1820, 8°.; [ with
another new title-page :] London: printed for Sherwood,
Neelv and Jones, Paternoster-row. 1822. 8°.

[ This book is one of the worst instances of literary appropriation
on record. It was palmed off on Gosden, the sporting bookseller,
whose portrait “engraved from a painting by A. Cooper, A. R. A. 4
is prefixed. He paid £30 for the copyright and also printed a single
copy on vellum at an expense of £10 for the vellum alone, as he,
himself, states ina MS. noite to Higgs’ sale-catalogue. That Lathy
foresaw the possibility of detection, may be inferred from the
deprecatory character of his preface, and the prudent modesty with
which he speaks of himself as “author, editor, or compiler, or
whatever other appellation critical jugdment shall be pleased to
bestow on me.” The only appellation he could claim of right, need
not be suggested here. ‘‘ The anglers, in eight dialogues,” attri-
buted to Dr. Scott of Ipswich is transported bodily into Lathy’s
book, with a few substitutions and modifications, and the suppres-
sion of the interlocutors. What is Lathy’s own, or, rather, what is
not Scott’s, in the work, may be found, for the most part in the
openings and endings of the different cantos, and, generally, in the
descriptive, didactic and devotional passages, the vapid character
and lame versification of which dove-tail ill with Scott's more terse
and vigorous lines: Lathy’s chief end and aim (besides his dis-
honest winnings) seems to have been, as he indeed avows in his
pretace, to further what he rather oddly calls “‘ Zhe union of the sexes
in the sport,” aud on this ground he apostrophises the fair sex in gen-
eral, and Col. Thornton, in particular, in a most enthusiastic strain.

In Canto x, having exhausted Scott’s poem, Lathy has to fall
back on his own resources, which do not carry him beyond a few
dozen feeble lines. He winds up, characteristically, with a plag-
iarism (of course unacknowleged) of Walton’s “ Angler’s wish,”
the quaint, crisp lines of which he submits to the cruel process of
decasyllabic stretching.

Besides the vellum copy, alluded to above, twenty copies were
printed on thick and large paper. Dr. Bethune says in his
“Waltonian Library,” “I have one in 4to.”]

“Your tackling being ready, go to the river and find a place (if
you can) that is between two or three yards in depth, near the
bank, that hath a gravelly or indifferent smooth bottom. Cast in
half your grains by handfulls, having first dipped the bag in the
water to wet them.

Now when you happen to catch more Dace and Shallows and
Roches than you can spend while they are sweet, you may give the
rest to the poor, taking King Zebulon for your example ; who saith
(according as 1 find it written in the Testament of the Twelve
Patriarchs), I fished for my Father's Household, till we came into
Egypt ; and for pity’s sake I gave of my fishing to every stranger
that I met with; if there were foreigner born, or any aged person,
I boiled my fish and dressed it well, according to every man’s need,
and carried it to them, comforting them, and having compassion.
And therefore God made me to catch much fish.”

Again : “ Having cast into the River half the grains, and an hour
being past, you have no bites of good Roches, } you mav conclude
either the season is not good, or there are Perch or Pike there.
Then go to some other place to angle for Roches ; if you had
baited the place when you came first to the river, the better.

Honest angler, as often as thou art weary, meditate on these
verses :

—__—

‘Cease then my soul to dote on or admire

This splendid world which is reserv'd for fire.

Decline the company of sinners here,

As thou wouldst not be shackled with them there.

Also : “When you have done angling, go and see if a pike hath

swallowed the Roche, the bait, and if you perceive he is not a little
one, draw him very gently towards you, and when he sees you,
away he flies; let go, and give him all the line you can, then draw
him gently again to tire him. When he is weary you may easily
draw him to the bank-side and take him.

Then will thy mind be so staved with the fear of the Lord, that

this verse may not disagree with thy thoughts, viz:
Whilst weary anglers in the night do sleep,
Their fancies on their float still watching keep.”

We trust the link of connection between the fear of the Lord
and the couplet quoted, will be clearer to others than it is to our-
selves. ]

De arte piscatoria. Concerning Angling for a Trout or
Grayling.

[ Once in the possession of Dr. Bethune who thus describes
it :—

“This is a very curious MS. by Robert Noble, who appears to
have been a clergyman. It begins thus: 3 waies.—1. At the top;

At the bottom; 3. In the middle. At the top witha fly. At
the bottom with ground-bait. In the middle with a minnow or
ground-bait.

At the top is of two sorts, with—1. A quick fly; 2. An arti-
ficial fly. At the bottom is of two sorts 1. By hand; 2. Or with
a float. ses the middle is of two sorts 1. With a minnow for
a trout ; 2. Or with a ground-bait for a grayling or omber, vulgo
oummdr. Of fly- fishing at the top 1. With a natural fly; 2
With an artificial or made fly.

I. First of the natural fly, which are to be used in May or June
only, namely, the greendrake, the stone-fly, and the chamlet-fly, to
which I may add the grasshopper, the most excellent of any.”
After this follows “2. With an artificial or made fty you are to
angle with a line (or tawm), &c.” ‘Then follows a list of flies for
each month, the same, and in zear/y the same words, as Cotton’s,
in his second part of the ‘Complete angler,” and the treatise
breaks off. From this it is clear that either Cotton copied from
this treatise, or the treatise is a synopsis from Cotton’s. There

is no date to the treatise itself, but it is bound up with an essay
on another subject /o//owing it, dated 1669, seven years before
Cotton published his work. The paper following it, as far as can
be judged, seems to be later, though in the same handwriting.
There is also in the same book a baptismal record of Rob. Noble’s
children, the first date of which is 1669, the last 1701, with other
papers. These throw uncertainty upon the date of the treatise ;
but if it be older than Cotton’s work it accounts for the rapidity
with which Cotton prepared his essay ; the details on fly-fishing
being thus ready to his hand. There are variations, slight indeed,
but marked, from Cotton’s book, which make the freatise! to my
eye, appear more like an original than a copy. It was purchased
from Wm. Garret, of Newcastle-upon-Tyne, and is named in his
catalogue for August, 1845.” ]

[“ The English husbandman” is the title of the complete work,
but the first book and also the second part of the second book were
sold separately. In this form they have mostly come down to us.
The Huth library contains a complete copy of the edition of 1613-
14, and the British Museum one of that dated 1635. The “art of
fishing” is a prose version of “The secrets of angling’ by John
Dennys and was also used by Markham in his ‘Country Content-
ments,” 1631. Its origin may account for a higher and more poet-
ical tone than is generally observable in the writings associated
with Markham’s name. ]

[ The editions 1611 and 1615, do not contain “The whole art of
angling as it was written in a small Treatise in Rime, and now, for
the better understanding of the reader, put into Prose, and adorned
and inlarged.” The “small treatise” is certainly “The secrets of
angling” by John Dennys, and this prose version, which begins,
“Since pleasure is a rapture, eéc.,””_ is identical with that previously
published by Markham in “The English Husbandman,” 1614. In
the editions of 1631, 1633, and 1649 the angling treatise occupies
pp- 59-102. “Country Contentments” is one of the tracts included
in “A way to get wealth.” ‘There was also probably an edition of
1623, since the Museum possesses Book II. bearing that date, but as
we cannot trace a copy we have been unable to determine whether
it contains the angling treatise or not. ]

“book contains curiosities and secrets that never were in print in
any book of angling whatever.” The frontispiece has five rude repre-
sentations of fish and the little cut of the angler used as a frontis-
piece in the early editions. Page 127 1s headed “ Curiosities.” The
first is “ ‘lo make sport with a pike or jack,” and another (p. 132)
“An anglers directions to preserve orchards,” which consists in
raising a smoke with “ mucky straw,” when the wind is easterly, so
that it ‘may be carried over the whole orchard.” ‘This is an
excerpt from the “Epitome of Husbandry,” p. 38. The book is
very rare and we only know of the existence of one perfect copy

[ The angling chapter ( pp. 29-38) is headed with the small wood-
cut which forms the frontispiece to the “ Young angler’s instructor,’
and is identical with the treatise in that work. These tracts to-
gether with “Notable things, or, the way to save wealth,” 1697,
were also issued under the collective title of ‘The way to save
wealth ; shewing how a man may live plentifully for two pence a
day.” Gervase Markham had passed away long before this tract or
any of the publications of Conyers were issued. He commenced
writing in the reign of Queen Elizabeth. Harte speaks of him
as the first Aackney writer in England, “ All subjects seem to have
been alike to him; yet, as his thefts were innumerable, he has now
and then stolen some very good things, and in a great measure pre-
served their memory from perishing. ”” He was the younger son of
Robert Markham, Esq., of Cotham in Nottinghamshire and was of
an ancient and honourable family. He had a brother, Francis, who
wrote “ Decades of Epistles concerning War.” |

[‘‘ From the circumstance,” says Sir Henry Ellis in his ‘List of
angling books,’ 1811, “of the author of this work signing himself
M. A. at the end of his verses ‘On the Antiquitie and Invention of
Fishing, and from the commendatory verses by Cambridge men in
the first edition of this work—I suspect him to have been the
Robert Nobbes, mentioned in Bishop Kennet’s manuscript collec-
tion, as holding the vicarages of Apelthorp and Wood-Newton, in
Northamptonshire, in 1676. I believe he succeeded Dr. Robert
South.”

Nobbes is commonly called ‘ The father of trollers,” but from
this honorific title, we are by no means to infer that he was the
earliest writer on that branch of the sport. He was the earliest,
indeed, that discoursed at large, and in a substantial shape, on it,
the earliest authoritative professor, but Venables preceded him and
also Walton, Barker, and Master Leonard Mascall discoursed of
trolling in his ‘“ Booke of Fishing with Hooke and Line” in 1590.
We may add to the antecedent list Blagrave, (1669), Gilbert, (1676),
and J. S[mith], (1684), all writers on trolling. On the Continent
we have Gesner of Zurich (De pisctum natura) 1558, and Aldro-
vandi of Bologna (Historia Piscium) 1613; also Fortin, the Monk
of Grammont and so-called ‘Solitaire Inventif, who touches on
trolling in his ‘“ Ruses Innocentes,” (chap. 24) and was followed by
other French angling authors. Amongst writers on trolling in
mors recent times, we may mention J. S. of the “Innocent Epi-
cure,” 1697; John Whitney, in his ‘“ Genteel Recreation,” 1700 ;
R. Hfowlett] in “ The Angler’s Sure Guide,” 1706; and Scott of
Ipswich, in his “Anglers, eight dialogues in, verse,” 1758. The
writers of the day, it is not necessary to recapitulate. Ist edit.

[ “ This work,” says Mr. Blakey in his ‘ Historical sketches of the
angling literature of all nations,’ “ gives a very lively description of
fishing, of the nature of the rivers and their scenery in Italy, of the
different kinds of bait used for fish of various sorts, and of their in-
stincts, migrations and habits. It is in this publication, as far as
our knowledge extends, that we first meet with the statement that
the trout (¢vofa) pair in the months of July and August, and that
the conjugal union seems to be cemented by a powerful sympathy
and affection. This writer likewise states the fact, well ascertained
by modern observers, that there is a regular kind of domestic gov-
ernment maintained among this class of fish, the largest apparently
assuming supreme and despotic authority...The Italian author is
somewhat at a loss to divine, ec.” After this circumstantial state-

ment our readers will be surprised to learn that the “Alceo” is a

play in five acts and in verse; that it is a love story of the most
romantic kind in the style of Tasso’s ‘Aminta,’ the pastoral
characters being replaced by fishers ; and that the allusions to the
occupations of the interlocutors are of the slightest and most cur-
sory nature. In other words that Mr. Blakey having been made a
“victim” by some facetious friend, has in turn deluded a genera-
ation of simple anglers and bibliographers. ]

Oppian’s Halieuticks of the nature of fishes and
fishing of the ancients, in v. books. Translated from the
Greek, with an account of Oppian’s life and writings, and a
catalogue of his fishes. Oxford. Printed at the Theatre,
i722. (pp. Vili. 232, 90...

{ A translation in heroic verse by Mr. Draper and Mr. J. Jones,
both of Balliol College. The original work contains 3500 lines,
divided into five books, of which the first two treat of the natural
history of fishes and the others of the art of fishing.

Oppian composed this poem in the island of Melita, whither he
had been banished by the Emperor Severus. He presented it to
Severus or more probably to his son Caracalla, who was so much
pleased that the poet was recalled from exile and presented with a
gold piece for each verse that it contained. Schneider has disposed
of the supposition that the “ Cynegetica” was written by the same
author. The “ Halieutics”” is much superior in style and poetical
embellishment. It contains much fable and absurdity together with
considerable zoological knowledge. Julius Scaliger pronounced
Oppian “the most perfect writer among the Greeks,” and Sir
Thomas Browne has expressed his wonder “that his elegant lines
should be so much neglected.” There appear to have been several
other Greek writers on fishing whose works have perished, and an
interesting passage in Athenzeus, (Detpnosophistai, epitome of
Book i. cap. 22), may be here quoted respecting them. Homer, he
says “compares the companions of Ulysses, who were seized by
Sylla, to fish caught with a long rod and thrown out of doors, and
he speaks more accurately concerning this act than those who have
written poems or treatises professedly on the subject. I refer to
Cecilius of Argos, and Numenius of Heraclea, and Pancrates, the
Arcadian and Posidonius the Corinthian and Oppianus the Cicilian
who lived a short time ago; for we know all of these men as
writers of heroic poems about fishing. And of prose essayists on
the subject we have Seleucus of Tarsus, and Leonidas of Byzan-
tium and Agothocles of Atracia.” A few passages are quoted by
Athenzus from Pancrates, Seleucus and Numenius. ]

the several publications of the kind, but his experience has con-

defective,” &c. After this exordium it will scarcely be a surprise to
the reader to learn that “ The new and complete angler” is all but

{ A copy of this ballad is in the Roxburghe collection (vol. iii.,
nos. 232. 233.) now preserved in the British Museum, where the
conjectural date of 1660 is assigned to it in the catalogue. The two
parts contain eleven verses, and the first part is headed with the
woodcut which forms the frontispiece to the first, second and fourth
editions of J. D's ‘Secrets of angling.” This last edition was
issued in 1652 by Francis Coles of the “Old Bayley,” whose name
is upon the ballad. (‘The earliest ballad with a date in the Rox-
burghe collection, on which the above four names appear conjointly,
was issued in 1655.) Mr. John Payne Collier thinks that this was
probably the original publication, and adds, ‘It is doubtful whether
the ballad is older than the date of the first impression of Walton’s
‘Angler, in 1653. The hours of business on the Royal Exchange
is stated in it to be ‘twixt twelve and one,’ whereas in the latter
end of the reign of Elizabeth and in that of James Ist. it was
between eleven and twelve. William Haughton’s comedy, ‘English-
men for my money, (printed in 1616, but written in 1598, as
appears by Henslowe’s Diary, p. 119), shows that merchants then
attended Change at eleven o'clock, and dined at twelve. There is
no other very distinct note of time in the ballad. The tune seems
comparatively modern, as we do not find it in any early collection.”

The ballad has been included (with slight variations) in several
collections : in ‘“Cupid’s Bee-hive,” 1721 (See Cupib); in “ The
compleat fisher or the true art of angling, by J. S.,” 6th ed., and
more recently in “ The Book of Roxburghe Ballads,” 1847, edited
by Mr. J. P. Collier, and in the publications of the “ Ballad
Society.” ]

{ This work, though in some respects inaccurate, displays a rare
combination of entomological and piscatorial science. The drawings
of the natural fly in juxtaposition with the artificial, are of great
value and nicety. They are on nineteen plates; the remaining
plate, used as a frontispiece, is of fish. New plates were prepared
for the edition of 1862. The Blythe, “A sweet trout-stream in
Staffordshire,” was the scene of Ronald’s early experience and on
the little bridge, close to the present station, stood his Obdservatory.
Amongst the midland streams, which he “studied, was the Dove,”
where Cotton erst hung up the thick-bodied fly of more Southern
counties, “in his window to laugh at.” In the 3rd edition appears
an announcement that the author prepares for sale the whole series
of flies and also supplies a fly-case of “ new construction.” ]

The preceding edition has been followed but other songs accompany
the ballad: “The milk-maid’s song,” ‘“ Vhe milk-maid’s mother’s
song,” “Corydon’s song” and “ The new angler.” The alleged rarity
of this edition is without foundation. Copies are found im almost
every sale catalogue of angling books. All the editions contain
eight rude woodcuts of fish : those in the earlier and later editions
being the same, while those in the 5th edition are from other blocks.
We are not aware of any later edition of the book except that issued
by Alexander Hogg in 1802 under the title of “‘The new and
complete angler,” by ‘Richard Pollard Esq. of Clapton.” See
POLLARD (R.). We are reluctant to leave the authorship among
the “mysteries of angling literature’ without an attempt to solve
the enigma. Premising that the little book is not a mere compi-
lation but possesses a distinct individuality and character of its own,
we may state that a short treatise on angling appeared in 1684 ina
volume entitled “Profit and pleasure united, or the Gentleman's
Magazine, by J. S.,” which in a subsequent edition (1704) is attri-
buted to “J. Smith, Gent.” This “Art of angling” opens ina
similar strain to ‘“ The true art” and contains sentences recording
personal experiences in the preparation of the angler’s equipment,
which, are nearly identical in both works. We have quoted one
passage in our note to “ Profit and pleasure,” (see J. SmiTH), which,
unless it be found in any antecedent writer, would lead us to believe
that both treatises are by the same hand. ]

by the poet. In one, after depicting the delight of a spring morning,
the poet continues :

“J shakt off sleepe, and tooke in hand a reede,
A reede whereto was bounde a slender line,
And crooked hooke, wherewyth, for my disport,
Walking along the bankes of silver lakes,
Oft times I vsed, with false deceiuing baytes,
To pluck bright-scaled fish from christall waues.
Forthwith I bended steps vnto the streames,
And pleasant meares, not far from mine abode,
Needlesse it were here to rehearse what ioyes
Each thing brought then vnto my dolefull minde.
The little menowes leapt aboue the waues,
And sportive fish like wanton lambes did play.” ]

(G.) Saunders is the first angling author who mentions silk-worm
gut, (pp. 91-2.) but Pepys, in his diary says, (Mar. 18th 1667),
“his day Mr. Cesar told me a pretty experiment of his angling
with a minikin, a gutt-string varnished over, which keeps it from
swelling, and is bey ond any hair for strength and smallness. The
secret I like mightily.” i@Vol. cIll.; p.171. Edition, 1828.) A
writer in the Fie/d, (Jan. 2. 1864), on the subject of silk-worm
gut, says : “ About three months since, Mr. Geo. Bowness, of Bell-
yard, shewed me an advertisement of his grandfather's, date 1760,
announcing that the zew article, silk-worm cut, is to be had there.
This pretty nearly fixes the date of its introduction into the tackle
trade.” ]

may instance: ‘“ Notes on salmon fishing,” by A. G. Wilkinson, in
vol. 12; ‘Trout fishing in Rangeley lakes,” by Edward Seymour,
in vol. 13; “ Sea-trout fishing,” by R. A. Macdonough, in vol. 14,

“Tn the cool shade of evening,
The forenoon of the day, (!)
Down by a brook my way I took,
To the Boyne I chanced to stray,
Where there I saw a maid undressed,
My frame she did confound,
My line and hook went with the brook,
And never yet was found.

I boldly stepped up to her saying,
Matchless Queen of Troy,

Was it Cupid sent you here,
Young angels to decoy ?

Or are you the bright morning star
That rises in the East ?

Or Juno bright, that rules the night
When lovers are at rest ?

In a tremor she made answer,
Sir, don’t me tantalise,

I’m none of those you mention,
Your praises I despise.

I’m but a shepherd’s daughter
Come bathing to the Boyne,
Your company withdraw from me
Your line and hook go join.”

[“‘The rapid sale of the first edition,” says the preface to the
second, “while it affords the editor the most flattering marks of
preference, calls upon him likewise to pay every attention to the
improvement of the second edition. How far he has succeeded
therein must be left to the judgment of the impartial reader.” The
editor did not respond to this “call upon him,” though he would
have us think differently. The second edition is a re-issue of the
first, with new title-page, new preface, and “Sermon of St.
Anthony” prefixed. The “ Third edition” is a paginary reprint of
the former impression as far as p. 122, but ten lines are afterwards
saved by reducing the “spacing” and the work ends with page 135.

[ The first of many editions. It contains the following passage:

“But Ze/mane failed not to notice them all many times abroad,
because she was desirous her friend MZusdorus (neere whom of pur-
pose she led them) might have full sight of them. Sometimes
angling to a little river neere hand, which, for the moisture it be-
stowed upon roots of some flourishing trees, was rewarded with
their shadow. There would they sit dow ne, and prety wagers be

made between Pamelia and Philoclea, which would soonest beguile
silly fishes, while 7ze/zane protested that the fit prey for them was
hearts of Princes. She also had an angle in her hand: but the
taker was so taken, that she had forgotten taking. asvdias, in the
meanetime, would be the Cooke himself of whi ut was so caught,
and Gynecia sit still, but with no still pensiveness,’

By which we are shown that Sir Philip Sidney considered the
sport of angling as worthy of being included amongst the perfec-
tions of Arcadian pastimes. Also, it gives us a new motto for
Piscator—Z£t in Arcadia ego.

Arcadia, but not the above passage. |

[ Chap. xiii. “The art of angling improved,” efc. It begins “ Of
all recreations angling is held the most contemplative and serious,
followed with the least charge and labour ; though, as the rest, it
requires much curious industry and experience.” He says the “line
must be either of silk or hair, though the latter I prefer before the
former ; and in twisting or breading, you must observe an exact
evenness lest one hair being shorter than the rest, the whole stress
lye upon it, and it breaking, render the rest too weak.” The latter

passage may be compared with “The true art of angling” by J. S.

(1696). It suggests the belief, as we have previously stated, that in

this writer we at length identify the J. S. of “ The true art.”
The frontispiece to the edition of 1704 represents in seven com-
partments, various country pursuits and pastimes. ]

We may quote ‘“ Angling,” which contains 58 verses, when the
“angry muse” condemns the worm fisher :

“Think, angler, what excruciating smart,
The harmless victim, unappris’d, must feel,
When, close adherent to its bleeding heart,
Remorseless forth is torn the pointed steel.”
In “Hare-hunting,” the presence of a lady again rouses the
poet's ire:
“Can gentle love inspire that sturdy heart,
Which for the chace with awkward ardour pants ?
To be pursu'd be still the woman’s part,
If wishing to be something more than—aunts.”’]

{ “ The fishermen,” Idyll xxi, contains 67 lines and has for its sub-
ject a dream of catching a golden fish, which an old man relates to
his comrade. It is chiefly notable for the enumeration of the fishing
implements in the hands of two poor Syracusan fishermen. The
poetical translators take great liberties with this list, Mr. Calverley,
being the least and Fawkes the most accurate. In plain prose the
“ weapons of their trade” were : ‘‘ wicker baskets, rods, hooks, baits
covered with seaweed, lines of horse hair, and weels and wicker-
work mazes, cords, and oars and an old boat on props,” (Il. 9-12),
Theocritus, who was a native of Sicily and at the height of his repu-
tation B.C. 277, brought pastoral poetry to its highest perfection.

(vol. ii., pp. 627-9). “I conclude this letter with expressing a wish,
that you may resemble this renowned brother of the angle in one
respect—and that is his uniform success. According to his account,
as the historian of his own exploits, he always meets with the finest
fish ; and such is his infallible skill, that he always catches them.
His exertions are equally fortunate when he pursues other diver-
sions ; as a Venatoy and an Auceps; for no hawks fly so high, no
greyhounds run so swiftly, as hisown. And I think it probable,
that when you have perused all he has said of himself, you will be
inclined to add to his fame, and declare, that no archer shoots with
so longa bow!” The references to fishing in the French tour are
few and unimportant. ]

[ Book III, cap. xvii treats De piscints, which are also mentioned
in chapter iii of the same book. The extravagance of the age had
led the Romans, in Varro’s time, to despise the old fresh-water ponds
of their forefathers and construct at a vast expense salt-water ponds,
where sea-fish were preserved and nurtured. The taste of the period
(not the manners let us hope,) is shown in an anecdote which Varro
relates, in his usual lively style, of our Philippus, the owner of large
sea-ponds, who, when a fine pike from the river was placed before
him at the house of a friend, spit out the portion he had tasted,
exclaiming ‘“ Peream ni piscem putavi esse.” Famous ponds were
also possessed by the Luculli and by Q. Hortensius. Varro says that
the latter always sent out to buy fish for supper, and adds with a pun,
you might more easily get his chariot mules out of their stables
than mullets out of his pond. Varro’s work is the best on Roman
agriculture that has come down to us. It isin dialogue form and
abounds with verbal pleasantries. ‘Sic hos pisces nemo cocus in

jus vocare audet,” he remarks respecting the sacred fish in Lydia
which gathered to the altar steps at the sound ofa flute ( Mr. Owen
has missed this curious fact) and no one durst touch.

There are German translations by G. Grosse, Halle, 1787-8. 8vo.;
and by J. F. Maver, Niirnberg, 1774 & 1781, 8vo. In Panckoucke’s

French version by X. Rousselot accompanying the original ; and
another by F. Wolff in Nisard’s “Collection des auteurs Latins,”
1850, efc. 8vo. In 1657 H.Conringius collected the treatises of
several old writers on fish-ponds and fish and fishing, and printed
them at Helmstadt in a quarto volume without collective title-page
but with continuous register. By the collector, who reads as well
as gathers, this book will be highly prized. It contains the treatise
of Dubravius “de piscinis ;” portions of Varro’s third book ; chapters
54-56 of Pliny’s ninth book; book twenty of the “Geoponika” of
Cassianus Bassus; excerpts from Crescentius and Heresbachius

“ Thereutices.” ]

[ Gosden’s reprint, of which a few copies were on larger paper,
contains some very minute and finished engravings of fish, mounted
in the text, sometimes to be had separately on one sheet.

The first edition was advertised in the “ Kingdom’s Intelligencer”
of Sept. gth 1661, as “now newly extant,” and was no doubt issued
in the Autumn of that year. The running title is “ Angling
improved or profit and pleasure united.” As a manual the book
deserves honorable mention. Col. Venables served in the Parlia-
mentary Army and in 1644 was made Governor of Chester. He
was sent with Penn in 1654 in command of the expedition for the
conquest of Hispaniola, and on their return from that disastrous
enterprise, the generals were imprisoned in the Tower. “It would
seem,” observes Dr. Bethune in his edition of Walton, 1847, “that
the brave, once most successful, but in the end unfortunate soldier,
found consolation in angling and writing upon his quiet pleasures.
It is impossible to read his book without being convinced that,
whatever may have been his troubles, he was a wise and piously
disposed man.”

J. W.f{alton] has contributed a courtly commendation of the
volume, addressed to his “ingenious friend the author,” in which
he states that he “could never find in [other books] that judgment
and reason which you have manifested in this (as I may call it)
Epitome of Angling, since my reading whereof I cannot look upon
some notes of my own gathering but methinks I do fpuertlia trac-
tare.” |

Dunstans Church-yard, Fleet-street, 1653. 8°.

[ Collation : A-R 3 in eights ; or pp. xvi. 246. The first sentence
of the title is engraved on scroll, with dolphins above and below,
and clusters of fish pendant on either side. Very neat engravings
of the trout, pike, carp, tench, perch, and barbel are inserted in the
text. The engraver is unknown, but Pierre Lombart, a noted
Frenchman then resident in this country and engaged in illustrating
books, and also Faithorne and Vaughan are possible candidates for
the honour. We know that the last mentioned was employed by
Marriot on other work. These plates which are said, with little
probability, to have been of silver, served for the first four editions,
and were re-engraved in reverse, by a less artistic hand, for the fifth
impression, a circumstance which has escaped notice.

“The compleat angler” was published in the beginning of the
month of May and the first trace of its existence is found in an
advertisement on the last page (2716) of no. 179 of ‘‘ The Perfect
Diurnal... From Munday May 9 to Munday May 16, 1652,”
[1653]. There are five book advertisements, and one of the loss
of two geldings, in this number. The second as follows: “ The
compleat angler, or the Contemplative man’s Recreation, being a Dis-
course of Fish and Fishing, not unworthy the perusal of most Anglers,
of 18 pence price. Written by Iz. Wa. Also the known play of
the Spanish Gipsee, never till now published. Both printed for
Richard Marriot, to be sold at his shop in Saint Dunstans Church-
yard, Fleet street.” Another advertisement, beginning “There is

newly extant, a Book of 18d. price, called the Compleat angler, etc,”
is found at the foot of the last page (1470) of no. 154 of the “ Mer-
curius Politicus... From Thursday, May 19 to Thursday May 26,
1653.”

The “Epistle dedicatory,” addressed “To the right worshipful
John Offley of Madeley Manor in the County of Stafford, Esq.” is
signed “Iz, Wa.,” and the author’s name does not appear on the
title-page before the edition of 1676. The commendatory verses in
the second edition are, however, inscribed to “ Mr. Izaak Walton.”

A fine and perfect copy of the first edition, estimated by Dr.
Bethune in 1847 at twelve guineas, is now worth £50 to £60, an
enhancement of value in which the other editions have not parti-
cipated. This advance will probably continue, for the number of
collectors has increased and is increasing with whom the rule
obtains, ‘aut Cesar, aut nullus.” A Frrsr Walton confers dis-
tinction upon its owner. <A Second is but a Second, though it may
be rarer. If a copy be perfect, its condition somewhat affects
its value, but an imperfect copy seeks a market in vain save at a low
price. We forbear quoting auction prices. Copies rarely reach the
auction room and the prices, at which they may have been occa-
sionally sold there, afford no criterion of their true value. ]

The compleat angler or the contemplative man’s

The book has almost been rewritten. The interlocutors are three
in this edition, Piscator, Auceps, and Venator who takes the place
of Viator. Commendatory verses by seven writers are for the first
time inserted. The first ‘To my dear brother-in-law Mr. Izaak

The compleat angler : or, contemplative man’s recre-
ation. In two parts. Containing, I. A large and particular
account of rivers, fish-ponds, fish, and fishing : written by the
ingenious and celebrated Mr. Isaac Walton. II. The best and
fullest instructions how to angle for a trout and grayling ina
clear stream. By Charles Cotton, Esq.; and published by
Mr. Walton. Comprising all that has been accounted valuable,
instructive, or curious, that has ever appeared on this subject.
Interspersed with a variety of practical experiments ; learned
observations ; beautiful descriptions ; philosophical, moral, and
religious reflections ; pieces of innocent mirth and humour ;
poetical compositions, efc., so as to render it entertaining
to readers of every taste and character whatsoever : with exact
representations of all the fish, and the addition of several
copper plates, designed as an embellishment to the work.
Carefully and correctly published, from the best editions, with
a number of occasional notes. By Moses Browne, author of
Piscatory Eclogues. To which are added, the laws of angling ;
and an appendix, shewing at one view, the most proper rivers,
particular haunts, baits; their seasons, and hours in the day
of biting; general directions 1n practice, for every kind of fish
that is to be angled for ; alphabetically disposed, in a method
peculiarly useful, and never yet attempted. With short rules
concerning the tackle, baits, the several ways of fishing, and
weather proper for angling. London: printed and sold by
Henry Kent, at the printing-office in Finch-Lane, near the
Royal Exchange, 1750. 12°.

[ Collation: pp. xvi, 312. viii (Index) with frontispiece by H.
Burgh and five separate illustrations, and cuts of fish in text.
Browne's editing was done with gusto; unfortunately the whim
took him to prune and polish his author's style ; to suppress passages
in his prose, to smooth down roughnesses in his rhymes, and to
adapt him to the over-refined and artificial taste of the day, a
sacrilege all reverent lovers of old Isaac will find it hard to
condone. |

lock, where it is to be supposed, Isaac’s hand must have touched it.]

executed. Some copies were on larger paper and these have the

author of the “Chronicles of London Bridge,” 1827, but the “ In-

neglect of previous editors made highly necessary. He has not
corrected “ the errors of the original” without stumbling, however.

the plates on India paper, at ten guineas. ‘This superb edition
contains the variations of all the first five editions, voluminous
notes, with original and elaborate memoirs of Walton and Cotton,
presenting many new facts. All the illustrations, with the exception
of Cotton’s Fishing House which is on wood, are engraved on
copper or steel. They were also issued separately, in small folio
form, as proofs on India paper.

“The illustrators are Stothard and Inskipp, the former being
charged with the scenic plates and the views of the localities, and
the latter, principally, with the fish. The engravers are Fox, Cooke,
Richardson and other eminent hands... The sentiment inspired by
a cursory survey of [these volumes] is, no doubt, one of pleasure
and admiration; but the after and more premanent impression
results, we are pained to confess, in a sense of comparative failure.
The book, sooth to say, is a pompous book, and with much that is
overdone in it. We seek for our modest king-cups and pimpernels,
and find these buried beneath a heap of learned and heterogeneous
lumber. We turn the leaves over with a feeling of disproportion,
a perception of incongruity and unfitness. Inskipp’s fish, indeed,
have all the force and freshness of nature, and rejoice the eye ; but
Stothard’s plates seem to us weak and silly, insignificant, as regards
the size of the work in which they figure, and unworthy, alike, both
of it and the artist... He was no angler, besides, and the fact
betrays itself, as might be expected, in many minute but conclusive

[ Collation : pp.1x, 418; 12 steel engravings, nine of which were
drawn by John Absolon and engraved by J. T. Willmore, a.R.A.; and
74 woodcuts in text.

This reprint far surpasses Major’s previous efforts in 1823 and 1824,
although these have still maintained their position in public esti-
mation. ‘The obnoxious ‘Introductory Essay’...still sticks to the
work, likea burr; but with this our censure exhausts itself; in other
respects the volume approaches more nearly to our ideal of an
edition consistent in all its parts, than any of its predecessors or
successors. Wale’s designs, repeated ad nauseam, are here sup-
pressed, and the new series by Absolon...quaint, unaffected and
picturesque, have the signal merit of seeming an emanation from
and efflorescence of the book itself, rather fhan a set of artistic
notions grafted on it... The woodcuts of fish give the varying
tones and surfaces with great success ; and the vignettes of scenery,
by Creswick and others, leave far behind those of former editions.”
Chronicle of the Compleat Angler, pp. 55-6. Dr. Bethune says of this
reprint: “Art could scarcely go further, and no more elegant
volume could find place in a library.” ]

“To save all risk of departure from the exact form,” it is stated
in the preface, “the sharp vigorous little cuts of fish, and the very
tasteful title-page, have been reproduced by a photographic process
which is simply infallible.” It is to be regretted that the process
adopted has made illustrations look rough and ragged, which have
always been commended for their neat and delicate execution.
We fear, however, that the “ process’ cannot be held accountable
for the fact that 1n the last line of the title-page, “ Church-yard” of
the original appears as “Churcheyard” in the photographic fac-
simile. }

“John Hyde, Esq.” and his “ great fish-pond at Heaver,” and _ his
“waterworks,” and his “summer-house,” and every thing that was
his. His rhymes are in the Bombastes Furioso style, and are sufhi-

appropriated to its use. Thanks to the selection of an able Com-

“Wotton, the country and the country swayne,
How can they yield a poet any sense ?

How can they stir him up, or heate his brain ?
How can they feede him with intelligence ?”

And he recommends him therefore, to come to “London, Englande’s
fayrest eye.” It is not very unlikely that their friendship was occasioned
or confirmed by their mutual love of fishing, for in another epigram,
De Piscatione, Bastard observes :—

Or they will not be catch’d, whate’er you do.”
