Has scattered the dew-drops in vapour away;

And though our good friar had chose a snug spot,

O'ershadow'd by trees, yet they sheltered him not

In the midst of the day;

For the sun then that way

Came over the water and stared in his face.

But, a fisherman true,

Though he's roasted quite through,

To give o'er the sport he would think a disgrace;

So he sits down again,
