THE ARGUMENT.
A Swain, who had chosen an agreeable Solitude for Angling, is called to by a young Fisher, who hastily craves his Assistance to recover a Trout an Otter was endeavouring to seize from him, which introduces a short Description of his hunting and taking.—The Swain, invited by the Occasion, desires, while they are engaged at their Sport, a Relation of what Creatures are most remarkably hurtful and destructive to Fish. The Recital moves in them an innocent Pity; and some Things happening unfavourable to their Pastime, they leave it, and retire in Company.
