design_v for_o other_o think_v those_o chase_n too_o violent_a for_o a_o young_a horse_n and_o therefore_o choose_v to_o train_v he_o after_o harrier_n and_o of_o this_o opinion_n i_o must_v own_v myself_o to_o be_v since_o exporience_n have_v full_o show_v i_o the_o advantage_n of_o the_o one_o and_o the_o inconvenience_n of_o the_o other_o now_o to_o prove_v this_o assertion_n let_v we_o

of_o they_o so_o the_o inconvenience_n from_o each_o chase_n be_v in_o a_o manner_n the_o same_o also_o for_o which_o soever_o you_o hunt_v it_o be_v either_o in_o covert_a or_o at_o force_n now_o if_o deer_n be_v hunt_v in_o a_o park_n they_o usual_o choose_v the_o most_o woody_a part_n of_o it_o as_o a_o refuge_n from_o the_o pursuit_n of_o their_o enemy_n which_o be_v both_o unpleasant_a to_o the_o rider_n and_o troublesome_a to_o the_o horse_n to_o follow_v the_o dog_n through_o the_o thick_a bush_n and_o beside_o usual_o the_o ground_n in_o park_n be_v full_a of_o mole-bank_n

out_o of_o the_o park_n and_o be_v hunt_v at_o force_n you_o will_v find_v that_o as_o soon_o as_o you_o have_v unharboured_a or_o rouse_v they_o they_o will_v immediate_o make_v out_o end_v way_n before_o the_o hound_n five_o or_o six_o nay_o sometime_o ten_o mile_n they_o follow_v in_o full_a cry_n so_o swift_o that_o a_o horse_n must_v be_v compel_v to_o run_v up_o and_o down_o hill_n
