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.	Cox, Nicholas, fl. 1673-1721.; Langbaine, Gerard, 1656-1692. Hunter, a discourse in horsemanship.	1686 (1686)	Wing C6705; ESTC R33687	308,510	564

convey_v it_o into_o some_o common_a receptacle_n let_v the_o ground_n behind_o he_o be_v raise_v even_o with_o the_o plank_n that_o he_o may_v continual_o stand_v on_o a_o level_n let_v the_o floor_n

perpendicular_o but_o not_o so_o heavy_a as_o to_o tire_v the_o horse_n or_o to_o hinder_v he_o from_o eat_v instead_o of_o a_o fix_a manger_n i_o will_v have_v you_o have_v a_o locker_n or_o drawer_n

to_o put_v in_o at_o a_o time_n as_o you_o see_v hereafter_o you_o need_v not_o make_v it_o very_o large_a i_o will_v not_o advise_v you_o to_o make_v any_o rack_n but_o instead_o thereof_o according_a to_o the_o italian_a fashion_n to_o give_v your_o horse_n his_o hay_n on_o the_o ground_n upon_o the_o litter_n or_o else_o you_o may_v if_o you_o please_v nail_v some_o board_n in_o the_o

of_o feed_v he_o may_v spoil_v his_o crest_n and_o that_o the_o blow_n upon_o his_o hay_n will_v soon_o make_v it_o nauseous_a to_o his_o palate_n for_o the_o spoil_v his_o crest_n it_o rather_o

he_o will_v feed_v as_o he_o lie_v which_o will_v be_v for_o his_o ease_n and_o satisfaction_n as_o to_o the_o quantity_n of_o his_o hay_n you_o be_v to_o give_v it_o he_o in_o such_o small_a

and_o lie_v down_o at_o pleasure_n you_o may_v make_v one_o of_o your_o staull_n close_o which_o may_v serve_v for_o your_o groom_n to_o lie_v in_o in_o case_n of_o a_o match_n sickness_n etc._n etc._n and_o where_o he_o may_v burn_v candle_n without_o the_o horse_n discern_v of_o it_o behind_o the_o horse_n i_o will_v have_v a_o range_v of_o press_n make_v with_o peg_n in_o they_o to_o

now_o that_o you_o may_v not_o cumber_v your_o stable_a with_o oat-binns_n i_o think_v it_o necessary_a to_o tell_v you_o that_o the_o best_a way_n be_v to_o make_v use_n of_o the_o invention_n of_o mr._n farmer_n of_o tusmore_n in_o oxford-shire_n which_o be_v do_v according_a as_o it_o be_v describe_v by_o the_o ingenuous_a dr._n plot_n in_o his_o natural_a history_n of_o oxford-shire_n by_o let_v the_o oat_n down_o from_o a_o loft_n above_o out_o of_o a_o vessel_n like_o the_o hopper_n of_o a_o mill_n whence_o they_o fall_v into_o a_o square_a pipe_n let_v into_o the_o wall_n of_o about_o four_o inch_n diagonal_a which_o come_v down_o into_o a_o cupboard_n also_o set_v into_o the_o wall_n but_o with_o its_o end_n so_o near_o the_o bottom_n that_o there_o shall_v never_o be_v above_o a_o gallon_n or_o other_o desirable_a quantity_n in_o the_o cupboard_n at_o a_o time_n which_o be_v take_v away_o and_o give_v to_o the_o horse_n another_o gallon_n present_o succeed_v so_o that_o in_o the_o low_a part_n of_o the_o stable_a where_o the_o horse_n stand_v there_o be_v not_o one_o inch_n of_o room_n take_v up_o for_o the_o whole_a provision_n of_o oat_n which_o

which_o lay_v up_o any_o otherwise_o in_o great_a quantity_n grow_v frequent_o musty_a now_o i_o will_v have_v you_o have_v two_o make_v the_o one_o for_o the_o oat_n the_o other_o for_o your_o split_n bean_n and_o both_o let_v into_o your_o range_v of_o press_n the_o partition_n may_v easy_o be_v make_v over_o head_n to_o separate_v your_o oat_n from_o your_o bean_n or_o if_o you_o like_v not_o this_o way_n you_o may_v convert_v it_o into_o a_o hayloft_n or_o chamber_n for_o your_o groom_n which_o you_o fancy_n but_o whatever_o you_o make_v choice_n of_o let_v the_o floor_n overhead_o be_v seiled_a that_o no_o dust_n from_o above_o fall_n upon_o your_o horse_n but_o if_o you_o have_v the_o convenience_n of_o a_o rick-yard_n so_o that_o you_o keep_v your_o hay_n abroad_o it_o be_v the_o opinion_n of_o some_o know_a horseman_n that_o to_o tuck_v it_o out_o of_o the_o rick_n by_o little_a and_o little_a as_o you_o have_v occasion_n to_o use_v it_o make_v it_o spend_v much_o

you_o can_v have_v that_o convenience_n some_o pond_n or_o run_a river_n near_o hand_n but_o be_v sure_a never_o let_v the_o front_n of_o your_o stable_a be_v without_o litter_n that_o by_o frequent_a
