TWO boats with nets lying off the sea-beach, quite still,
Ten fishermen waiting—they discover a thick school of mossbonkers—
they drop the join`d seine-ends in the water,
The boats separate and row off, each on its rounding course to the
beach, enclosing the mossbonkers,
The net is drawn in by a windlass by those who stop ashore,
Some of the fishermen lounge in their boats, others stand ankle-deep
in the water, pois`d on strong legs,
The boats partly drawn up, the water slapping against them,
Strew`d on the sand in heaps and windrows, well out from the water,
the green-back`d spotted mossbonkers.
