The signs and causes of their diseases, the means to prevent them, their cure, and the good or bad use of purging and bleeding. III. The way to order and preserve them, when upon travel, to feed, and to dress them. IV. The art of shoeing, according to a new design of shoes, which will recover bad feet, and preserve the good. Together with a treatise, how to raise and bring up a true and beautiful race of horses: as also instructions, whereby to fit all kinds of horses with proper bits, whereof the chief draughts are represented in copper-plates. / Written originally in French by the Sieur de Solleysel Escuyer, sometime one of the overseers of the French Kings Royal Academy of Riding, near to the Hostel de Conde in Paris. And translated from the last Paris impression, by Sir William Hope of Kirkliston Kt. Lieutenat Governour of the Castle of Edinburgh. By whom is also added as a supplement to the first part, a most compendious and excellent collection of horsemanship, taken from the best and most modern writers upon that subject, such as Mr. De la Brow, Pluvinel, and the Great Duke of Newcastle.

more_o difficult_a so_o there_o be_v also_o other_o which_o may_v be_v have_v at_o a_o very_a easy_a rate_n and_o be_v therefore_o most_o proper_a for_o horse_n of_o a_o small_a value_n not_o but_o that_o they_o be_v also_o good_a for_o the_o fine_a of_o horse_n however_o i_o judge_v they_o more_o proper_a for_o the_o course_v and_o most_o common_a such_o as_o your_o ordinary_a hackney_n

observation_n from_o the_o state_n and_o condition_n of_o his_o body_n both_o laward_n and_o outward_a our_o keeper_n must_v observe_v that_o the_o strong_a state_n of_o body_n which_o be_v general_o account_v to_o be_v that_o which_o be_v high_a and_o full_a of_o flesh_n so_o it_o be_v good_a hard_a and_o without_o inward_a foulness_n be_v always_o the_o best_a and_o able_a for_o the_o performance_n of_o great_a match_n yet_o herein_o he_o must_v also_o consider_v two_o thing_n the_o first_o the_o shape_n of_o the_o horse_n body_n the_o second_o his_o inclination_n and_o manner_n of_o feed_v for_o the_o shape_n of_o the_o horse_n body_n there_o be_v some_o who_o be_v of_o a_o round_a plump_a and_o close_o knit_v shape_n so_o that_o they_o will_v appear_v fat_a and_o well_o shape_v when_o they_o be_v lean_a and_o in_o poverty_n other_o again_o be_v raw_a bone_a slender_a and_o looss_a knit_v and_o will_v appear_v lean_a and_o deform_a when_o they_o be_v fat_a foul_a and_o full_a of_o gross_a humour_n so_o likewise_o for_o their_o inclination_n some_o horse_n in_o feed_v will_v grow_v plump_a and_o lusty_a outward_o and_o carry_v as_o we_o say_v a_o thick_a rib_n when_o they_o be_v inward_o lean_a as_o may_v be_v and_o other_o will_v appear_v outward_o lean_a to_o the_o eye_n when_o they_o be_v inward_o full_a of_o grease_n now_o in_o this_o case_n our_o feeder_n have_v two_o help_n the_o first_o outward_a and_o the_o second_o inward_a whereby_o he_o may_v be_v always_o keep_v from_o be_v deceive_v with_o such_o false_a appearance_n the_o outward_a help_n be_v the_o outward_a handle_n and_o feel_v the_o horse_n body_n general_o over_o all_o his_o rib_n but_o particular_o upon_o his_o short_a or_o hindermost_a rib_n and_o if_o his_o flesh_n feel_v general_o soft_a and_o loose_a and_o the_o finger_n sink_v into_o it_o as_o into_o down_o then_o be_v he_o without_o all_o question_n foul_a but_o if_o he_o be_v universal_o hard_a and_o firm_a and_o only_o upon_o the_o bindermost_a rib_n be_v softness_n than_o he_o have_v grease_n and_o foul_a matter_n within_o he_o which_o he_o must_v be_v make_v ride_v of_o how_o lean_a and_o poor_a so_o ever_o he_o seem_v in_o outward_a appearance_n as_o for_o the_o inward_a help_n it_o be_v only_o sharp_a exercise_n and_o good_a and_o beneficial_a seouring_n for_o the_o first_o you_o be_v sure_o will_v dissolve_v the_o foulness_n and_o the_o late_a will_n not_o fail_v to_o bring_v it_o away_o 3._o observation_n from_o sweat_n our_o keeper_n shall_v take_v a_o special_a notice_n in_o all_o

pace_n stand_v still_o in_o the_o stable_a and_o the_o like_a it_o be_v then_o apparent_a that_o the_o horse_n be_v faint_a foul_a feed_v and_o want_v exercise_n but_o if_o upon_o good_a occasion_n as_o strong_a heat_n great_a labour_n and_o the_o like_a he_o sweat_v yet_o his_o sweat_n be_v white_a and_o frothy_a and_o like_a soap_n sud_n then_o be_v he_o yet_o inward_o foul_a and_o also_o want_v exercise_n but_o if_o his_o sweat_n be_v black_a and_o as_o it_o be_v only_a water_n throw_v upon_o he_o without_o any_o frothieness_n then_o be_v he_o clean_o feed_v in_o good_a lust_n and_o good_a case_n so_o that_o you_o may_v adventure_v ride_v without_o danger_n 4._o observation_n from_o the_o hair_n our_o keeper_n shall_v also_o observe_v his_o coat_n or_o hair_n in_o general_n but_o

be_v he_o in_o good_a case_n but_o if_o it_o be_v rough_a and_o stare_a or_o discolour_a then_o be_v he_o inward_o cold_a at_o the_o heart_n and_o want_v both_o clothes_n and_o warm_a keep_n 5._o observation_n from_o the_o privy_a part_n our_o keeper_n must_v observe_v his_o horse_n stone_n for_o if_o they_o hang_v down_o side_n or_o low_a from_o his_o body_n then_o be_v he_o out_o of_o lust_n and_o heart_n and_o be_v either_o sick_a of_o grease_n or_o other_o foulness_n but_o if_o they_o lie_v close_o couch_v up_o and_o be_v contain_v in_o a_o small_a room_n than_o he_o be_v healthful_a and_o in_o good_a plight_n and_o vigour_n 6._o observation_n from_o the_o limb_n our_o keeper_n must_v observe_v to_o rub_n and_o bath_n frequent_o his_o horse_n leg_n especial_o the_o night_n before_o he_o run_v either_o his_o heat_n or_o match_n and_o that_o from_o the_o knee_n and_o gambrel_n downward_o with_o either_o clarify_a dog_n grease_n marrow_n head_n and_o foot_n good_a brandy_n or_o spirit_n of_o wine_n any_o of_o which_o be_v very_o good_a and_o let_v he_o work_v they_o well_o in_o with_o his_o hand_n and_o not_o with_o fire_n for_o what_o he_o get_v not_o in_o of_o the_o

find_v opportunity_n 7._o observation_n from_o the_o ground_n to_o run_v in_o our_o keeper_n shall_v observe_v that_o if_o the_o ground_n whereon_o he_o be_v to_o run_v his_o match_n be_v dangerous_a and_o apt_a for_o mischievous_a accident_n as_o strain_n over_o reach_n sinew_n bruise_n and_o the_o like_a that_o then_o he_o be_v not_o bind_v to_o give_v all_o his_o heat_n upon_o it_o but_o have_v make_v his_o horse_n only_o acquaint_v with_o the_o nature_n thereof_o shall_v take_v a_o part_n of_o the_o course_n as_o a_o mile_n or_o two_o or_o more_o according_a to_o the_o goodness_n of_o the_o

also_o that_o he_o make_v not_o his_o course_n less_o or_o short_a but_o rather_o long_a than_o that_o he_o be_v to_o run_v upon_o his_o match_n day_n but_o if_o for_o some_o special_a reason_n he_o take_v no_o part_n of_o the_o course_n as_o because_o his_o horse_n be_v subject_a to_o lameness_n or_o tender_a footed_a and_o apt_a to_o surbate_n than_o he_o may_v many_o time_n but_o not_o

say_v our_o author_n they_o have_v horse_n which_o be_v only_o design_v and_o keep_v for_o perform_v of_o great_a course_n and_o they_o delight_v so_o much_o in_o this_o divertisement_n that_o they_o

preparation_n that_o they_o perform_v course_n which_o be_v incredible_a and_o that_o not_o at_o a_o slow_a or_o round_o gallop_v as_o our_o horse_n but_o at_o full_a speed_n so_o that_o people_n who_o have_v never_o see_v it_o can_v scarce_o be_v persuade_v that_o any_o horse_n can_v endure_v and_o hold_v out_o with_o the_o violence_n of_o such_o course_n for_o five_o or_o six_o mile_n and_o yet_o many_o horse_n in_o that_o kingdom_n be_v know_v to_o furnish_v carrier_n of_o that_o length_n i_o have_v never_o put_v this_o method_n i_o be_o go_v to_o show_v you_o in_o practice_v myself_o and_o therefore_o shall_v only_o insert_v it_o at_o the_o end_n of_o this_o book_n upon_o the_o honest_a word_n and_o recommendation_n of_o a_o brave_a cavalier_n who_o assuren_n i_o he_o have_v it_o

what_o follow_v you_o shall_v find_v contentment_n to_o choose_v then_o a_o horse_n for_o run_v he_o shall_v be_v somewhat_o long_o body_v nervous_a of_o great_a mettle_n and_o very_o swift_a and_o
