                                        IT'S GOOD FISHING IN TROUBLED WATERS.<lb/>
                                        The Reader will imagine a picture, representing a Fisher disturbing the water with a<lb/>
                                        long pole, and driving the fish towards the net.<lb/>
                                        YOU with to know what I'm about?<lb/>
                                        My bus'ness is soon told"<lb/>
                                        I'm going to fish upon a plan<lb/>
                                        Advis'd from time of old.<lb/>
                                        In waters that are most disturb'd,<lb/>
                                        Most fish are caugt, they say;<lb/>
                                        But when the water's calm and clear<lb/>
                                        The fish all swim away:<lb/>
                                        For then too cautiously they scan<lb/>
                                        The meshes of the net,<lb/>
                                        Or be your bait however good,<lb/>
                                        No bite from them you get.<lb/>
                                        But quite another sport it is<lb/>
                                        If you disturb the stream;<lb/>
                                        The troubled water then gets thick,<lb/>
                                        And roach, perch, eels and bream<lb/>
                                        Are taken then alike at once,<lb/>
                                        Large fish as well as small,<lb/>
                                        All caught together in the net;-<lb/>
                                        That's what I fishing call!<lb/>
                                        Need I say more? He who knows not<lb/>
                                        To make a stir in this World's stream,<lb/>
                                        Will but a sorry Fisher prove,<lb/>
                                        Nor minnows catch, much less a bream.<lb/>
                                        Stir, Fisher, stir! Stillness does harm;<lb/>
                                        It little profits when the water's calm.</p>
