MAKE HAY WHILE THE SUN SHINES.

While the sun shines make your hay,

That is what the wise folk say;

Even better, I opine,

While the fish is fresh to dine.

“I don’t believe there are any fish here, after all,” he said, after half an hour, during which he caught nothing.

No sooner had he said this, than he caught a little sun fish.

Before the morning was half gone, he had enough fish for dinner.
