bite_v your_o horse_n according_a to_o his_o proportion_n it_o shall_v be_v good_a that_o for_o a_o day_n or_o two_o you_o let_v he_o stand_v upon_o his_o bit_n in_o the_o stable_n to_o play_v &_o

he_o may_v have_v a_o good_a feel_v both_o of_o the_o bytte_n and_o kyrbe_n after_o this_o you_o shall_v take_v his_o back_n and_o be_v well_o seat_v and_o have_v pausd_v awhile_o take_v up_o your_o bytte_n rain_v into_o your_o left_a hand_n and_o hold_v they_o in_o this_o manner_n put_v your_o little_a finger_n and_o your_o ring-finger_n between_o the_o two_o reins_n and_o lay_v your_o thumb_n

for_o fear_n of_o distemper_a his_o head_n and_o as_o you_o find_v he_o frame_v himself_o to_o his_o bytte_n so_o by_o little_a and_o little_a let_v he_o feel_v it_o every_o day_n more_o than_o other_o till_o such_o time_n that_o you_o find_v he_o bo●●_n understand_v the_o bytte_n and_o have_v his_o head_n well_o stay_v thereon_o then_o may_v you_o every_o day_n exercise_v he_o in_o all_o the_o foresay_a lesson_n with_o all_o those_o help_n and_o correction_n ●efore_o mention_v till_o you_o have_v he_o in_o that_o perfection_n that_o without_o any_o other_o help_n save_o the_o offer_n of_o your_o hand_n he_o will_v do_v what_o you_o shall_v require_v note_v that_o the_o true_a place_n where_o the_o bytte_n shall_v lie_v in_o the_o horse_n mouth_n be_v above_o the_o tusk_n of_o his_o nether_a chap_n as_o for_o any_o other_o quillet_n or_o stratagem_n in_o horsemanshippe_n which_o the_o curious_a be_v desirous_a to_o understand_v i_o refer_v they_o to_o master_n blundevil_n book_n which_o will_v instruct_v they_o sufficient_o now_o to_o come_v to_o those_o lesson_n which_o though_o they_o be_v needless_a in_o service_n yet_o show_v they_o great_a art_n in_o the_o rider_n together_o with_o much_o strength_n courage_n and_o nimbleness_n in_o the_o horse_n and_o those_o i_o term_v lesson_n of_o pleasure_n because_o they_o be_v more_o please_v to_o the_o eye_n then_o necessary_a for_o any_o use_n and_o first_o of_o all_o to_o make_v your_o horse_n bind_v aloft_o you_o shall_v thus_o instruct_v he_o have_v he_o well_o stay_v upon_o his_o bit_n that_o he_o be_v both_o certain_a of_o head_n and_o mouth_n you_o shall_v trot_v he_o forth_o into_o some_o even_o sandy_a way_n and_o have_v trot_v he_o a_o dozen_o yard_n you_o shall_v stop_v he_o and_o upon_o his_o first_o or_o second_o advauncement_n give_v he_o the_o even_a stroke_n of_o your_o spur_n at_o which_o if_o he_o will_v not_o bind_v strike_v he_o again_o the_o second_o time_n if_o that_o prevail_v not_o then_o trot_v he_o forward_o again_o and_o do_v as_o you_o do_v before_o continue_v this_o manner_n of_o labour_n till_o he_o leap_v with_o all_o his_o four_o leg_n from_o the_o ground_n which_o so_o soon_o as_o he_o do_v immediate_o make_v much_o of_o he_o and_o upon_o his_o first_o bound_n let_v he_o be_v set_v up_o in_o the_o stable_n that_o he_o may_v thereby_o be_v encourage_v the_o next_o time_n and_o the_o better_o understande_v what_o your_o will_n be_v then_o have_v he_o out_o the_o second_o day_n and_o do_v as_o you_o do_v the_o first_o and_o increase_v his_o leap_v as_o you_o see_v he_o increase_v in_o understanding_n till_o he_o be_v so_o perfect_a that_o upon_o the_o offer_n of_o your_o spur_n he_o will_v rise_v on_o all_o four_o note_v that_o if_o he_o rise_v not_o so_o high_a with_o his_o hinder_a part_n as_o with_o his_o forepart_n that_o then_o you_o accompany_v with_o the_o even_a stroke_n of_o your_o spur_n a_o good_a lash_n with_o your_o rod_n under_o his_o belly_n and_o near_o unto_o his_o sheathe_z or_o yard_n note_v that_o if_o in_o bound_v he_o do_v not_o keep_v his_o ground_n but_o press_v forward_o and_o do_v not_o fall_v where_o he_o rise_v that_o then_o so_o much_o as_o he_o press_v forward_o so_o much_o you_o make_v he_o retire_v back_o by_o beat_v he_o upon_o his_o fore_a knee_n and_o then_o be_v in_o the_o former_a place_n make_v he_o bind_v again_o note_v that_o when_o your_o horse_n will_v bound_v aloft_o lusty_o and_o well_o you_o shall_v make_v use_n of_o it_o thus_o when_o you_o gallop_v your_o horse_n before_o any_o assembly_n as_o soon_o as_o you_o have_v make_v your_o stop_n and_o advance_v if_o then_o for_o a_o close_a you_o make_v he_o bind_v it_o will_v be_v very_o comely_a also_o in_o your_o manage_n if_o you_o make_v your_o turn_n only_o with_o bound_n it_o will_v be_v very_o séemlie_o when_o you_o beat_v a_o large_a turn_n if_o for_o a_o close_a or_o end_n you_o make_v your_o horse_n bind_v on_o all_o four_o nothing_o can_v be_v more_o seemly_a and_o then_o to_o stand_v still_o thus_o much_o for_o bound_v now_o for_o the_o coruett_n you_o shall_v do_v it_o thus_o ride_v your_o horse_n down_o some_o descend_v ground_n and_o have_v trot_v two_o or_o three_o yard_n stop_v he_o and_o make_v he_o advance_v twice_o or_o thrice_o together_o then_o put_v he_o forward_o half_a so_o far_o as_o before_o and_o there_o make_v he_o advance_v three_o or_o four_o time_n together_o in_o this_o manner_n make_v he_o go_v a_o step_n or_o two_o and_o advance_v till_o of_o himself_o he_o will_v raise_v his_o hinder_a part_n and_o in_o steed_n of_o go_v forward_o stand_v advaunce_v both_o behind_o and_o before_o of_o a_o equal_a height_n when_o he_o will_v do_v this_o well_o then_o may_v you_o upon_o his_o three_o advauncement_n give_v he_o the_o even_a stroke_n of_o your_o spur_n to_o make_v he_o bind_v aloft_o which_o manner_n of_o salt_n our_o english_a rider_n term_v the_o gallop_n galliard_n another_o manner_n of_o leap_n there_o be_v which_o we_o call_v the_o capriole_fw-la or_o goates-leape_a it_o differ_v nothing_o at_o all_o from_o the_o coruett_n but_o that_o your_o horse_n in_o it_o must_v press_v more_o forward_o then_o in_o the_o coruett_n and_o raise_v his_o hinder_a part_n a_o great_a deal_n high_a therefore_o you_o shall_v teach_v your_o horse_n to_o do_v it_o as_o you_o teach_v he_o the_o coruett_n add_v thereunto_o this_o one_o help_n more_o that_o be_v to_o turn_v your_o rod_n in_o your_o hand_n so_o as_o the_o point_n thereof_o may_v be_v just_a over_o the_o midst_n of_o your_o horse_n buttock_n than_o set_v your_o hand_n fast_o to_o your_o side_n and_o always_o upon_o his_o advance_v as_o you_o put_v he_o forward_o with_o your_o leg_n so_o hit_v he_o upon_o the_o buttock_n with_o your_o rod_n which_o will_v force_v he_o to_o raise_v his_o hinder_a part_n observe_v to_o keep_v that_o time_n with_o your_o rod_n that_o you_o keep_v with_o your_o hand_n and_o leg_n and_o thus_o for_o the_o make_n of_o a_o horse_n for_o service_n or_o pleasure_n i_o have_v show_v both_o my_o practice_n and_o experience_n chap._n 3._o how_o to_o choose_v a_o
