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.

outward_a part_n of_o the_o body_n will_v fall_v down_o into_o his_o heel_n and_o so_o cause_n gowtiness_n and_o swell_a i_o need_v not_o trouble_v you_o with_o the_o outward_a sign_n of_o this_o

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
