take_v in_o hand_n any_o resty_a or_o runawaie_o jade_n but_o that_o i_o have_v perfect_o reform_v they_o whereas_o if_o i_o have_v offer_v diverse_a of_o they_o to_o turn_v in_o a_o furrowe_n it_o

to_o turn_v ready_o on_o both_o hand_n by_o ride_v he_o in_o a_o ring_n and_o change_v he_o from_o hand_n to_o hand_n within_z and_z without_o the_o same_o and_o as_o he_o be_v perfect_a in_o the_o

till_o i_o have_v bring_v he_o to_o turn_v in_o so_o narrow_a room_n as_o be_v possible_a the_o which_o i_o must_v needs_o confess_v to_o be_v the_o most_o excellent_a way_n of_o all_o other_o for_o that_o hereby_o i_o shall_v neither_o hurt_v my_o horse_n mouth_n nor_o have_v any_o need_n to_o pull_v he_o about_o with_o the_o one_o rain_n wherewith_o i_o may_v make_v he_o become_v weak_a neck_v to_o run_v backward_o or_o to_o rear_v on_o end_n yea_o by_o turn_v my_o horse_n too_o short_a at_o the_o first_o i_o may_v not_o only_o disorder_v he_o but_o also_o utter_o spoil_v his_o back_n loin_n and_o mouth_n and_o beside_o i_o may_v make_v he_o so_o resty_a that_o he_o will_v not_o do_v any_o thing_n but_o it_o remain_v that_o you_o show_v i_o how_o i_o shall_v make_v my_o ring_n in_o a_o pit_n or_o upon_o a_o hill_n side_n to_o reform_v those_o horse_n that_o be_v strong_a of_o body_n lusty_a and_o well_o able_a to_o endure_v travail_n and_o those_o that_o be_v hard_a of_o mouth_n

must_v make_v in_o a_o pit_n or_o upon_o a_o hill_n side_n differ_v nothing_o in_o fashion_n from_o the_o other_o ring_n but_o in_o quality_n there_o be_v great_a difference_n for_o that_o the_o one_o in_o five_o time_n more_o painful_a than_o the_o other_o because_o in_o tread_v the_o one_o half_a of_o this_o ring_n you_o must_v ride_v uphill_o and_o the_o other_o half_a your_o horse_n go_v downehill_n which_o will_v make_v any_o horse_n be_v he_o never_o so_o hard_a of_o mouth_n or_o unnimble_a of_o foot_n or_o subject_a to_o lean_v on_o the_o one_o side_n in_o his_o turn_n wonderful_o mend_v his_o fault_n by_o oftentimes_o pase_v he_o in_o the_o same_o and_o trot_v he_o and_o sometime_o gallop_v he_o three_o or_o four_o time_n about_o on_o a_o hand_n and_o then_o stop_v he_o and_o make_v he_o go_v back_o which_o be_v do_v you_o must_v walk_v he_o in_o the_o self_n ring_n till_o he_o be_v in_o breath_n again_o and_o then_o give_v he_o his_o lesson_n as_o before_o so_o often_o as_o shall_v be_v agreeable_a with_o his_o strength_n and_o to_o take_v great_a heed_n that_o always_o you_o give_v he_o five_o time_n as_o many_o turn_n upon_o his_o pace_n as_o you_o do_v either_o upon_o his_o troth_n or_o gallop_v and_o when_o you_o change_v hand_n you_o must_v observe_v the_o self_n same_o order_n as_o have_v be_v before_o teach_v in_o all_o point_n and_o as_o touch_v the_o ring_n in_o a_o pit_n which_o be_v best_a of_o all_o other_o if_o the_o pit_n be_v little_a enough_o you_o may_v make_v your_o ring_n round_o about_o upon_o the_o bank_n thereof_o so_o high_a as_o your_o horse_n may_v get_v good_a foot_n but_o if_o the_o pit_n be_v big_a than_o you_o will_v have_v the_o ring_n then_o may_v you_o tread_v it_o out_o upon_o one_o side_n of_o the_o pit_n and_o make_v one_o part_n of_o your_o ring_n so_o high_a upon_o the_o bank_n or_o side_n of_o your_o foresay_a pit_n as_o your_o horse_n can_v get_v good_a hold_n with_o his_o foot_n and_o observe_v the_o same_o order_n as_o in_o the_o ring_n upon_o the_o hill_n side_n these_o two_o last_o ring_n be_v not_o only_o sufficient_a to_o reform_v all_o the_o forename_a fault_n but_o thou_o shall_v also_o ten_o time_n soon_o have_v make_v thy_o horse_n ready_a in_o these_o ring_n than_o in_o the_o ring_n upon_o plain_a ground_n beside_o that_o when_o thy_o horse_n be_v make_v he_o shall_v be_v so_o
