Fisherman And His Wife

The fisherman did not much like the business: however, he went back to the seashore; and when he got there the water looked all yellow and green. And he stood at the water's edge, and said:

 "O man of the sea!
  Hearken to me!
  My wife Ilsabill
  Will have her own will,
  And hath sent me to beg a boon of thee!"
