dog-fisher |
| 释义 |
dog-fisher an appellation given by Walton to the Otter (as a dog-like beast living on fish). (By a strange error, explained by Johnson as ‘A kind of fish’; whence in subsequent dictionaries.)
1668Walton Compl. Angler (ed. 4) 49 The Otter devours much fish..And I can tell you that this Dog-fisher, for so the Latins call him, can smell a fish in the water a hundred yards from him..and that his stones are good against the falling sickness. |
