the_o reins_n be_v seat_v in_o your_o saddle_n as_o be_v before_o mention_v take_v the_o rain_n of_o your_o bridle_n and_o fold_n the_o one_o side_n over_o the_o other_o make_v each_o side_n both_o

ever_o i_o try_v or_o see_v will_v so_o soon_o bring_v to_o pass_v as_o this_o this_o do_v then_o walk_v about_o your_o large_a ring_n three_o time_n on_o your_o left_a hand_n &_o then_o change_v within_o your_o ring_n as_o you_o do_v before_o observe_v for_o your_o left_a hand_n your_o left_a rain_n and_o your_o right_a leg_n then_o will_v your_o large_a ring_n have_v two_o whole_a ring_n within_o the_o same_o as_o this_o figure_n follow_v show_v now_o when_o by_o this_o your_o travail_n you_o have_v bring_v your_o horse_n that_o he_o will_v willing_o pace_v this_o ring_n &_o make_v

draw_v your_o left_a rain_n straight_o and_o so_o hold_v it_o then_o move_v gentle_o your_o right_a hand_n rain_n lay_v the_o calf_n of_o your_o left_a
you_o shall_v both_o make_v he_o to_o yield_v his_o hinder_a part_n and_o also_o if_o the_o ground_n where_o by_o chance_n you_o shall_v ride_v he_o he_o lose_v and_o uncertain_a rather_o than_o the_o will_v overshoote_a his_o ground_n he_o will_v stop_v upon_o his_o buttock_n note_v that_o when_o you_o make_v your_o horse_n go_v back_o if_o he_o thrust_v his_o hinder_a part_n out_o of_o the_o

your_o rod_n yet_o but_o in_o gentle_a sort_n and_o sometime_o your_o spur_n and_o that_o but_o seldom_o after_o thus_o your_o horse_n can_v pace_v trot_n and_o gallop_v your_o ring_n and_o make_v his_o stop_n in_o good_a sort_n which_o be_v well_o assure_v he_o do_v perfect_o and_o ready_o ere_o you_o offer_v he_o any_o new_a lesson_n it_o shall_v be_v necessary_a that_o for_o a_o grace_n and_o beautify_v of_o what_o he_o do_v that_o then_o you_o teach_v he_o to_o advance_v before_o which_o as_o it_o do_v adorn_v so_o do_v it_o carry_v great_a profit_n and_o commodity_n and_o therefore_o you_o may_v bring_v he_o unto_o it_o in_o this_o manner_n ride_v he_o into_o some_o beat_a highway_n which_o be_v either_o gravel_n or_o sandy_a and_o there_o trot_v he_o forward_o a_o

your_o tongue_n part_n sharp_o from_o the_o roof_n of_o your_o mouth_n together_o with_o the_o noise_n of_o your_o rod_n shake_v in_o your_o hand_n which_o at_o the_o first_o will_n peradventure_o but_o move_v in_o your_o horse_n a_o stamare_n or_o amazement_n but_o be_v you_o careless_a and_o trot_v he_o forward_o again_o as_o far_o as_o you_o do_v before_o and_o there_o offer_v he_o the_o like_a stop_n and_o the_o like_a motion_n at_o which_o if_o he_o refuse_v to_o advance_v and_o offer_v to_o run_v back_o then_o thrust_v he_o forward_o with_o your_o leg_n and_o solicit_v he_o till_o you_o make_v he_o take_v up_o but_o one_o of_o his_o leg_n which_o when_o you_o perceive_v immediate_o cherish_v he_o and_o let_v he_o pause_v a_o space_n then_o trot_v he_o forward_o and_o do_v as_o you_o do_v before_o continue_v this_o manner_n till_o you_o find_v your_o horse_n understand_v your_o meaning_n but_o what_o for_o want_v of_o use_n and_o nimbleness_n he_o will_v not_o perform_v or_o do_v it_o according_a to_o your_o mind_n when_o this_o you_o find_v which_o you_o shall_v perceive_v by_o his_o lift_n up_o of_o one_o leg_n or_o by_o advance_v of_o both_o upon_o compulsion_n or_o great_a correction_n then_o shall_v you_o labour_v he_o in_o this_o lesson_n always_o correct_v he_o when_o he_o be_v untoward_a and_o cherrish_v he_o when_o he_o give_v any_o show_n of_o likelihood_n to_o perform_v your_o will_n till_o such_o time_n that_o you_o have_v make_v he_o that_o he_o will_v upon_o y_fw-es ●_o move_a of_o your_o leg_n to_o his_o side_n advance_v himself_o before_o carry_v his_o head_n in_o his_o true_a place_n and_o take_v his_o leg_n up_o even_o together_o in_o such_o sort_n as_o the_o true_a art_n of_o horsmanshippe_n require_v when_o thus_o he_o will_v advance_v then_o shall_v you_o exercise_v he_o to_o stop_v upon_o footpace_n and_o to_o advance_v withal_o after_o that_o upon_o his_o trot_n both_o slow_a and_o swift_a to_o stop_v and_o advance_v and_o last_o upon_o his_o gallop_n to_o stop_v and_o advance_v now_o for_o such_o note_n and_o observation_n as_o be_v to_o be_v observe_v during_o the_o teach_v of_o this_o i_o will_v here_o set_v down_o first_o note_n that_o when_o you_o stop_v your_o horse_n and_o compel_v he_o to_o advance_v that_o you_o do_v not_o hang_v upon_o his_o mouth_n or_o press_v it_o too_o sore_o for_o that_o be_v the_o ready_a way_n to_o spoil_v all_o and_o make_v he_o run_v away_o but_o only_o carry_v such_o a_o gentle_a firm_a hand_n as_o may_v no_o more_o but_o stay_v he_o from_o press_v forward_o nay_o let_v your_o hand_n be_v such_o that_o he_o may_v rather_o have_v liberty_n to_o press_v forward_o a_o pace_n or_o two_o then_o by_o your_o extreme_a pull_n of_o he_o that_o he_o may_v have_v his_o mouth_n dull_v and_o by_o that_o mean_n not_o only_o win_v the_o head_n from_o you_o but_o be_v as_o new_a to_o begin_v as_o if_o he_o have_v never_o be_v haultre_v note_v that_o if_o he_o chance_v be_v at_o the_o first_o ignorant_a of_o your_o meaning_n to_o press_v forward_o two_o or_o three_o pace_n that_o then_o you_o make_v he_o retire_v and_o go_v back_o just_o so_o much_o as_o he_o go_v forward_o that_o thereby_o he_o may_v know_v he_o do_v offend_v and_o therefore_o after_o dread_a to_o do_v the_o like_a note_v that_o if_o in_o a_o day_n ride_v or_o two_o ne_o three_o you_o can_v not_o bring_v he_o to_o that_o perfection_n you_o will_v that_o then_o you_o be_v not_o discourage_v but_o continue_v your_o labour_n for_o those_o horse_n that_o be_v the_o slow_a of_o conceit_n and_o hard_a to_o

with_o a_o good_a ●udgell_n you_o beat_v he_o upon_o the_o forelegge_n or_o with_o the_o great_a end_n of_o your_o rod_n between_o the_o ●ares_n correct_v he_o and_o undoubted_o he_o will_v reform_v that_o abuse_n note_v that_o after_o he_o will_v advance_v perfect_o and_o in_o order_n that_o then_o in_o every_o stop_n when_o you_o make_v he_o advance_v that_o you_o make_v he_o do_v it_o twice_o thrice_o and_o sometime_o four_o time_n together_o without_o intermission_n and_o then_o to_o stand_v still_o the_o profit_n whereof_o you_o shall_v find_v when_o you_o come_v to_o teach_v your_o

bring_v your_o horse_n to_o do_v this_o lesson_n be_v thus_o first_o mark_v out_o upon_o your_o right_a hand_n in_o a_o fair_a footpace_n a_o ring_n of_o a_o reasonable_a size_n be_v about_o a_o
