A34843	The gentleman's recreation in four parts, viz. hunting, hawking, fowling, fishing : wherein these generous exercises are largely treated of, and the terms of art for hunting and hawking more amply enlarged than heretofore : whereto is prefixt a large sculpture, giving easie directions for blowing the horn, and other sculptures inserted proper to each recreation : with an abstract at the end of each subject of such laws as relate to the same.

haunt_n be_v much_o alike_o with_o those_o of_o the_o partridge_n only_o the_o quail_n love_v most_o the_o wheat-field_n the_o morepoot_n must_v the_o heath_n and_o forest-ground_n and_o the_o rail_n love_v the_o long_a high_a grass_n where_o they_o may_v lie_v obscure_a the_o way_n of_o find_v they_o be_v like_o that_o of_o the_o partridge_n by_o the_o eye_n the_o ear_n and_o haunt_v but_o the_o chief_a way_n of_o all_o to_o find_v they_o out_o be_v the_o call_n or_o pipe_n to_o which_o they_o listen_v with_o such_o earnestness_n that_o you_o can_v no_o soon_o imitate_v their_o note_n but_o they_o will_v answer_v they_o and_o will_v pursue_v the_o call_n with_o such_o greediness_n that_o they_o will_v play_v and_o skip_v about_o you_o nay_o run_v over_o you_o especial_o the_o quail_n the_o note_n of_o the_o male_a and_o female_a differ_v very_o much_o and_o therefore_o you_o must_v have_v they_o both_o at_o your_o command_n and_o when_o you_o hear_v the_o male_a call_n you_o must_v answer_v in_o the_o female_n note_v and_o when_o the_o female_a call_v you_o must_v answer_v in_o the_o male_n note_n and_o thus_o you_o will_v not_o fall_v to_o have_v they_o both_o come_v to_o you_o who_o will_v gaze_v and_o listen_v till_o the_o net_n be_v cast_v over_o they_o the_o way_n of_o take_v these_o bird_n be_v the_o same_o with_o that_o of_o the_o partridge_n and_o they_o may_v be_v take_v with_o net_n or_o lime_n either_o bush_n or_o rod_n or_o engine_n which_o you_o must_v stalk_v with_o or_o by_o the_o setting-dog_n which_o i_o shall_v treat_v of_o in_o the_o next_o

this_o dog_n you_o can_v begin_v too_o soon_o with_o he_o and_o therefore_o as_o soon_o as_o he_o can_v lap_v you_o must_v teach_v he_o to_o couch_v and_o lie_v down_o not_o dare_v to_o stir_v from_o that_o posture_n without_o leave_n observe_v in_o his_o first_o teach_v to_o let_v he_o eat_v nothing_o till_o he_o deserve_v it_o and_o let_v he_o have_v no_o more_o teacher_n feeder_n cherisher_n or_o corrector_n but_o one_o and_o do_v not_o alter_v that_o word_n you_o first_o use_n in_o his_o information_n for_o the_o dog_n take_v notice_n of_o the_o sound_n not_o the_o language_n when_o you_o have_v acquaint_v he_o with_o the_o word_n suitable_a to_o his_o lesson_n you_o must_v then_o teach_v he_o to_o know_v the_o word_n of_o reprehension_n which_o at_o first_o shall_v not_o be_v

and_o for_o his_o satisfaction_n i_o shall_v set_v down_o his_o word_n which_o be_v these_o if_o the_o nobility_n and_o gentry_n of_o this_o our_o isle_n of_o great_a britain_n do_v true_o know_v

though_o not_o for_o manage_v yet_o for_o hunt_v but_o what_o manner_n of_o hunt_v fox-hunting_a forsooth_o or_o harrier_n which_o be_v as_o fleet_v as_o petty_a greyhound_n wherewith_o they_o do_v
