that_o you_o must_v not_o give_v above_o two_o course_n in_o a_o week_n for_o if_o you_o do_v you_o will_v spend_v he_o too_o much_o although_o he_o be_v never_o so_o lusty_o and_o thereby_o weaken_v he_o and_o make_v he_o unfit_a for_o your_o race_n the_o next_o thing_n to_o be_v observe_v be_v that_o one_o of_o the_o time_n must_v be_v upon_o the_o day_n you_o design_v he_o shall_v run_v the_o match_n the_o two_o day_n must_v be_v as_o equal_o distant_a from_o each_o other_o as_o you_o can_v divide_v the_o week_n therefore_o you_o ought_v to_o make_v your_o match_n according_o mondays_n

both_o because_o it_o be_v unseemly_a to_o do_v it_o on_o the_o sunday_n and_o so_o you_o may_v observe_v of_o whatsoever_o day_n it_o shall_v fall_v out_o to_o be_v that_o you_o keep_v as_o near_o as_o you_o can_v a_o equal_a distance_n of_o time_n between_o his_o course_n or_o heat_n but_o again_o you_o must_v be_v sure_a to_o observe_v in_o what_o weather_n you_o ride_v he_o at_o such_o time_n for_o if_o it_o be_v wet_a that_o be_v if_o it_o either_o rain_n snow_n or_o hail_n you_o must_v not_o give_v he_o any_o heat_n till_o such_o time_n it_o be_v fair_a unless_o necessity_n urge_v it_o as_o when_o it_o rain_v most_o part_n of_o the_o week_n or_o so_o and_o than_o you_o must_v choose_v the_o time_n when_o it_o hold_v up_o best_o and_o let_v he_o be_v cover_v very_o warm_a not_o only_o his_o body_n but_o his_o head_n neck_n ear_n breast_n and_o shoulder_n for_o his_o head_n you_o must_v provide_v a_o cover_v make_v with_o little_a bag_n to_o put_v his_o ear_n in_o and_o be_v sure_a you_o keep_v he_o abroad_o as_o little_a time_n as_o possible_a for_o the_o damp_n raw_a air_n will_v at_o such_o time_n endanger_v much_o his_o health_n but_o to_o the_o last_o particular_a
