他们远远地坐着，开始打鱼。

They sat at a distance and started hunting for fish.

没有渔船，没有渔网，怎样打鱼啊？

Without fishing boat and fishing net, how could the boy catch fish?

去深海打鱼并学着切鱼片、为自己烹鱼。

Go deep sea fishing and learn to filet and cook your own fish.

讲完了，对西门说，把船开到水深之处，下网打鱼。

Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, Launch out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught.

这就是叶芝，我想，在《打鱼人》里想法之一“，当他说，伟大的艺术败了。”

This is one of the events, I think, that Yeats is thinking about in "the Fisherman" when he speaks of "great Art beaten down."
