sodo_fw-la now_o rub_v well_o draw_v his_o bridle_n cleanse_v the_o manger_n put_v up_o his_o scatter_a hay_n sift_v he_o a_o quart_n and_o better_a of_o oat_n and_o give_v they_o he_o and_o so_o

in_o the_o week_n be_v a_o sufficient_a proportion_n for_o any_o horse_n of_o what_o condition_n or_o state_n of_o body_n soever_o second_o that_o one_o heat_n shall_v ever_o be_v give_v upon_o that_o day_n in_o the_o week_n on_o which_o he_o be_v to_o be_v run_v his_o match_n as_o thus_o for_o example_n if_o your_o match_n be_v to_o be_v run_v upon_o the_o monday_n than_o your_o fit_a heat_a day_n be_v mundaye_n and_o friday_n and_o the_o monday_n to_o be_v ever_o the_o sharp_a heat_n both_o because_o it_o be_v the_o day_n of_o his_o match_n and_o there_o be_v three_o day_n respite_n betwixt_o

shall_v give_v no_o heat_n except_o in_o case_n of_o extremity_n in_o very_o rainy_a and_o foul_a weather_n but_o rather_o to_o differ_v hour_n and_o change_v time_n for_o it_o be_v unwholesome_a and_o dangerous_a and_o therefore_o in_o case_n of_o shower_n and_o uncertain_a weather_n you_o shall_v be_v sure_a to_o provide_v for_o your_o horse_n a_o warm_a line_v hood_n with_o linen_n ear_n and_o the_o nape_n of_o the_o neck_n line_v to_o keep_v out_o rain_n for_o nothing_o be_v more_o dangerous_a than_o cold_a wet_a fall_v into_o the_o ear_n upon_o the_o nape_n of_o the_o neck_n and_o the_o fillet_n four_o and_o last_o observe_v to_o give_v your_o heat_n the_o weather_n be_v seasonable_a as_o early_o in_o the_o morning_n as_o you_o can_v that_o be_v by_o the_o spring_n of_o the_o

of_o danger_n and_o precipitation_n the_o second_o fortnight_n keep_n now_o to_o descend_v to_o your_o second_o fortnight_n keep_n touch_v your_o first_o approach_n to_o the_o stable_a and_o all_o

you_o shall_v give_v he_o a_o quart_n or_o better_a of_o clean_o sift_v oat_n which_o as_o soon_o as_o he_o have_v eat_v you_o shall_v then_o bridle_v he_o up_o and_o dress_v he_o in_o all_o point_n as_o be_v declare_v in_o the_o first_o fortnight_n you_o shall_v clothe_v he_o saddle_v he_o air_n water_n and_o bring_v he_o home_o in_o all_o point_n as_o in_o the_o first_o fortnight_n only_o you_o shall_v not_o put_v any_o hay_n in_o his_o rack_n to_o tear_v out_o but_o only_o draw_v with_o your_o hand_n as_o much_o fine_a sweet_a hay_n which_o you_o shall_v toss_v and_o dust_n well_o as_o
