Several coloured Silk and Crewel to make the body of the fly, the
feathers of a Drakes head, black or brown sheeps wool, or Hogs wool, or
hair, thred of Gold, and of silver; silk of several colours (especially
sad coloured to make the head:) and there be also other colour'd
feathers both of birds and of peckled fowl. I say, having those with him
in a bag, and trying to make a flie, though he miss at first, yet shal
he at last hit it better, even to a perfection which none can well teach
him; and if he hit to make his _flie_ right, and have the luck to hit
also where there is store of _trouts_, and a right wind, he shall catch
such store of them, as will encourage him to grow more and more in love
with the Art of _flie-making_. _Viat._ But my loving Master, if any wind
will not serve, then I wish I were in _Lapland_, to buy a good wind of
one of the honest witches, that sell so many winds, and so cheap.

winde is south, It blows your bait into a fishes mouth. Next to that,
the _west_ winde is believed to be the best: and having told you that
the _East_ winde is the worst, I need not tell you which winde is best
in the third degree: And yet (as _Solomon_ observes, that _Hee that
considers the winde shall never sow_:) so hee that busies his head too
much about them, (if the weather be not made extreme cold by an East
winde) shall be a little superstitious: for as it is observed by some,
That there is no good horse of a bad colour; so I have observed, that if
it be a clowdy day, and not extreme cold, let the winde sit in what
corner it will, and do its worst. And yet take this for a Rule, that I
