A04062 An hipponomie or the vineyard of horsemanship deuided into three bookes. 1. The theorick part, intreating of the inward knowledge of the man.2. The first practicke part, shewing how to worke according to that knowledge. 3. The second practicke part, declaring how to apply both hunting and running horses to the true grounds of this art. In which is plainly laid open the art of breeding, riding, training and dieting of the said horses. Wherein also many errors in this art, heretofore published, are manifestly detected.

the_o hand_n for_o they_o must_v both_o be_v combine_v together_o for_o to_o gain_v the_o true_a command_n of_o the_o horse_n mouth_n for_o if_o he_o work_v upon_o the_o mouth_n only_o with_o the_o

the_o right_a side_n of_o his_o main_n he_o must_v lay_v the_o left_a rein_n close_o to_o his_o neck_n and_o follow_v after_o with_o his_o body_n lay_v the_o calf_n of_o his_o left_a leg_n close_o

like_a help_n with_o the_o right_a leg_n not_o suffer_v his_o bridle_n hand_n to_o pass_v the_o left_a side_n of_o his_o main_n and_o so_o the_o like_a use_n of_o help_n for_o all_o other_o

unto_o it_o only_o i_o give_v instance_n hereof_o to_o show_v how_o necessary_a and_o what_o relation_n the_o use_n of_o the_o foot_n have_v to_o the_o hand_n again_o there_o be_v some_o which_o use_v to_o help_v their_o horse_n with_o their_o body_n bend_v it_o that_o way_n and_o hold_v their_o contrary_a leg_n forth_o which_o they_o will_v have_v their_o horse_n to_o turn_v but_o i_o think_v it_o be_v nothing_o so_o effectual_a nor_o commendable_a because_o the_o leg_n be_v as_o well_o to_o correct_v as_o to_o help_v and_o when_o it_o be_v hold_v from_o his_o horse_n side_n if_o he_o prove_v

a_o man_n can_v make_v the_o least_o motion_n with_o the_o body_n but_o it_o will_v be_v very_o decerneable_a to_o the_o spectator_n which_o opertnesse_n be_v nothing_o commendable_a in_o a_o horseman_n therefore_o let_v all_o those_o who_o be_v desirous_a to_o be_v labourer_n in_o this_o vineyard_n covet_v to_o help_v their_o horse_n so_o covert_o as_o they_o can_v and_o then_o they_o shall_v both_o gain_v to_o themselves_o exceed_v glory_n &_o delight_n and_o to_o their_o horse_n great_a admiration_n &_o fame_n for_o see_v that_o the_o hand_n and_o the_o foot_n be_v the_o chief_a tool_n by_o which_o the_o frame_n of_o this_o vinieyard_n be_v make_v if_o a_o man_n can_v learn_v to_o use_v they_o exquisite_o than_o he_o shall_v be_v sure_a his_o branch_n will_v flourish_v and_o

i_o have_v say_v a_o horse_n be_v altogether_o govern_v by_o feeling_n therefore_o a_o man_n must_v be_v careful_a to_o carry_v his_o body_n so_o that_o he_o do_v not_o use_v any_o idle_a motion_n but_o only_o such_o as_o may_v tend_v either_o to_o the_o help_a or_o correct_v of_o his_o horse_n in_o regard_n the_o effect_n of_o a_o thing_n be_v always_o take_v from_o the_o cause_n for_o if_o a_o man_n effect_n ●_o idle_n motion_n procure_v idle_a effect_n use_v the_o gesture_n of_o his_o body_n idle_o without_o need_n it_o must_v needs_o produce_v idle_a effect_n therefore_o a_o man_n ought_v first_o to_o learn_v how_o to_o help_v his_o horse_n before_o the_o horse_n can_v learn_v to_o understand_v his_o mind_n by_o his_o motion_n for_o if_o a_o horse_n can_v right_o conceive_v the_o mind_n of_o 4.h._o theo._n 4.h._o his_o rider_n by_o his_o motion_n he_o use_v ambiguity_n or_o aequivocation_n which_o be_v one_o motion_n for_o diverse_a thing_n then_o do_v he_o straight_o fall_v into_o some_o disaster_n by_o thought_n and_o so_o do_v bring_v a_o rebellion_n instead_o of_o a_o unition_n for_o if_o one_o man_n can_v know_v the_o intention_n of_o another_o mind_n except_o that_o he_o speak_v significant_o note_n note_n unto_o he_o that_o he_o may_v conceive_v his_o will_n neither_o can_v a_o horse_n now_o hope_v to_o dispose_v himself_o to_o satisfy_v his_o rider_n desire_n except_o he_o know_v the_o right_a use_n of_o his_o help_n for_o as_o in_o the_o confusion_n of_o tongue_n when_o the_o tower_n
of_o babel_n babel_n a_o simile_n by_o the_o confusion_n of_o babel_n be_v build_v when_o one_o call_v for_o one_o thing_n there_o be_v another_o bring_v by_o which_o the_o building_n be_v

one_o thing_n then_o begin_v he_o to_o do_v another_o because_o he_o do_v not_o right_o understand_v his_o mind_n by_o his_o motion_n for_o although_o the_o truth_n of_o a_o man_n heart_n be_v not_o altogether_o know_v by_o his_o speech_n for_o he_o in_o policy_n will_v oftentimes_o speak_v on_o thing_n and_o think_v another_o either_o for_o fear_n or_o affection_n yet_o there_o be_v no_o such_o deceit_n in_o the_o horse_n for_o he_o do_v show_v true_o the_o effect_n of_o every_o man_n knowledge_n he_o not_o respect_v one_o man_n more_o than_o another_o but_o as_o the_o knowledge_n be_v in_o

man_n may_v the_o more_o true_o know_v how_o he_o shall_v help_v his_o horse_n he_o must_v observe_v four_o chief_a help_n in_o work_v the_o horse_n to_o his_o perfection_n the_o first_o be_v the_o body_n of_o the_o man_n to_o cause_v the_o motion_n in_o the_o horse_n the_o second_o be_v his_o body_n c_o how_o to_o help_v the_o horse_n with_o his_o body_n leg_n to_o help_v the_o motion_n the_o three_o be_v his_o hand_n both_o to_o guide_v the_o motion_n and_o cherish_v and_o the_o last_o be_v his_o tongue_n to_o help_v to_o quicken_v the_o motion_n and_o to_o cherish_v now_o because_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o man_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o horse_n he_o must_v observe_v that_o it_o may_v chief_o be_v in_o those_o part_n of_o his_o body_n that_o the_o horse_n
