I went through the story of Udine over again. My nymph was afair die-non of Wimplo, whom I wooed and won in that kind of .ofl-hand fashion in which we manage such things for ourselves when within the portals ol' the ivory He was dear !~ she sat weeping , In the world she was alone ; Yet not aloneâ€"her son was hov‘ring Round his Spirit’s earthly name.

I will give you leave to whip the stream, as far as tho plank crossing drove." “0. I would not spoil your sport for the world." “I am snrry._1 am tmspassing. I intended to leave my card at the house above to which I presume the fishing is attached." The young lady is clothed in gray, from head to hme. She has grey gloves, and grey waiters below her short dross ; a grey hat with a gray feather ; but her cheek; are red and she looks deliciously cross at- the uc~ cident she ha 1 met with. ”Do you know. sjr, that you have no right to fish here 2 This part of the stream is strictly preserved.” This is done with rather a snlky uir ; and when rah-.nsed, the grey qqgler calls out : " Don't. be taking 00‘ your hat. please, but try and freo my line if you can." "0. how tiresome I” said some one from the shelters of the nhlcrs ; and a moment after- wards a yonng lmly comes into sight, with a. decided flush of anger on her cheeks. So, with my solitary fish, 1 wander up the stream, and at length I begin to suspect that I must have passed the boundary of the district which has been allotted for the use of his customers to the landlord of the Swan. However there is an attractive piece of water, well shaded by elders on one side, and with a clear bank on the other, which I determine to assay, even at the risk of being sought as a poacher. Here I have better luck, although the trout are small, and do not necessitate the employment of the land- ing net, Brook trout are biting merrily, and I begin to think I shall have a fair creel to show for the morning sport, when and- denly I became conscious of a very singular phenomenon, that for the moment startles me considerably. Making a cast into a rip- ple, round a big boulder, I find my line firms ly caught and dragged into the air, my reel gives out, another reel gives out, and as I live, I am firmly entangled.

You feel a little of the vanity of an explorer, too ; for scenes that are unfaili- iliar to us, we constantly think are strange to others. That May morning, how Well I‘ remember it ! The dappled cows ; the lark singing with so much heart that his song seemed to rebound from the very vault of the skies, or to break as it touched it, and {all in a shower of melody about us, the cool gelid air of the dawn breeze ; the scents of the aromatic water plantsâ€"they are present to me as I write. with a vividness that is al- mo<t troublesome. Here is a bank after old Walton‘s own heart. A deep pool, above a long stone slab, covered with a beard of moss over which the \Vimple runs and falls about a single foot, makinga creamy 'swirl which ought to be a sure find for trout. My rod was already put up, and selecting a small dunâ€"fly, standing as far back as possible. I throw my first cast. Ha ! a rise as I live ; but he hasn’t touched the book. Try him again, and be more cautious in striking this time. He has it, and he dashes across the iivnlet with the fly, I can feel f:om the pull that beis a pound if an ounce. He has a game tassel for his life, but worries at last, and at the roll of the wince is towed hclpless to a little shallow bay, where 'he is assisted to land by the net.

If 80, l would be down to the river on the chance of mceting her once more. The trout had an easy time of it; the angler‘s heart was not in his work. He whipped all his flies 5 he pulled them with a stupid jerk from the fishes mouth. He Would haw sighed ‘ lleigho 9 mid would have said ‘ Alnck. aiack'l' if those'expreasions were not obsolete. Then, to make matters Worse, he ceased his calling althgether, and longed to cry. ‘My lady sweet. arise! my lady sweet, arise! with everything that pretty bin.” Then he lit a cigar, which drove «may the perfume of the 'flow'ers, but could :1” stop the clamor of the Wimple. which be- came if possible, more important than ever.
