FISH HAWK, OK OSPREY. Sweeps down like lightning! plunges with a roar ! And bears his struggling victim to the shore. The long-housed fisherman beholds with joy, The well-known signals of his rough employ; And, as he bears his nets and oars along, Thus hails the welcome season with a song :— THE FISHERMAN'S HYMN. The osprey sails above the sound, The geese are gone, the gulls are flying; The herring shoals swarm thick around. The nets are launch'd, the boats are plying; Yo, ho, my hearts! let's seek the deep, Raise high the song, and cheerly wish her, Still as the bending net we sweep, " God bless the fish hawk and the fisher ! " She brings us fish—she brings us spring, Good times, fair weather, warmth, and plenty, Fine store of shad, trout, herring, ling, SLeepshead, and drum, and old-wives dainty. Yo, ho, my heart! let's seek the deep, Ply every oar, and cheerly wish her, Still as the bending net we sweep, " God bless the fish Lawk and the fisher ! " She rears her young on yonder tree, She leaves her faithful mate to mind 'em ; Like us, for fish, she sails to sea. And, plunging, shews us where to find 'em. Yo, ho, my hearts ! let's seek the deep. Ply every oar, and cheerly wish her, While the slow bending net we sweep, " God bless the fish hawk and the fisher! "
