and_o tunyce_n of_o the_o merlin_n there_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o falcon_n that_o be_v call_v a_o merlin_n these_o merlyn_n be_v very_o much_o like_o the_o haggart_n falcon_n in_o plume_n in_o sear_n of_o the_o foot_n in_o beak_n and_o talon_n so_o as_o there_o seem_v to_o be_v no_o odds_n or_o difference_n at_o all_o betwixt_o they_o save_v only_o in_o the_o bigness_n for_o she_o have_v like_o

the_o falcon._n assure_o diverse_a of_o these_o merlyn_n become_v pass_v good_a hawk_n and_o very_a skilful_a their_o property_n by_o nature_n be_v to_o kill_v thrussh_n lark_n and_o partridge_n they_o flee_v with_o great_a fierceness_n and_o more_o hot_o than_o any_o other_o hawk_n of_o prey_n they_o be_v of_o great_a pleasure_n and_o full_a of_o courage_n but_o a_o man_n must_v make_v great_a care_n and_o take_v good_a heed_n to_o they_o for_o they_o be_v such_o busy_a and_o unruly_a thing_n with_o their_o beak_n as_o diverse_a time_n they_o eat_v of_o their_o own_o foot_n and_o talon_n very_o unnatural_o so_o as_o they_o die_v of_o it_o and_o this_o be_v the_o reason_n and_o true_a cause_n that_o seldom_o or_o never_o shall_v you_o see_v a_o mew_v or_o entermew_v merlin_n for_o that_o in_o the_o mew_v they_o do_v spoil_v themselves_o as_o i_o have_v before_o declare_v my_o italian_a author_n have_v these_o word_n both_o of_o the_o shape_n and_o in_o commendation_n of_o the_o merlin_n the_o merlin_n be_v say_v he_o of_o the_o shape_n of_o a_o falcon_n less_o than_o the_o sparrowhawk_n more_o nimble_a and_o wight_n of_o wing_n than_o any_o other_o hawk_n she_o do_v

also_o she_o be_v a_o very_a venturous_a hawk_n and_o hardy_a by_o this_o we_o may_v conjecture_v it_o for_o though_o she_o be_v little_o big_a than_o a_o piegon_v yet_o notwithstanding_o she_o will_v hazard_v herself_o to_o flee_v the_o partridge_n the_o quail_n and_o such_o other_o like_o fowl_n more_o large_a than_o herself_o and_o will_v pursue_v they_o in_o so_o cruel_a manner_n as_o sundry_a

be_v the_o only_a hawk_n of_o all_o other_o in_o who_o as_o my_o author_n affirm_v there_o be_v no_o difference_n betwixt_o the_o male_a and_o female_a but_o yet_o by_o experience_n we_o find_v it_o otherwise_o for_o the_o female_a be_v the_o large_a bird_n of_o the_o two_o and_o more_o big_a than_o the_o other_o in_o sight_n some_o be_v of_o opinion_n that_o lydos_n hierax_n in_o greek_a and_o levis_fw-la accipiter_fw-la in_o latin_a be_v our_o merlin_n of_o who_o we_o speak_v and_o that_o those_o bird_n of_o prey_n who_o aristotle_n term_v leves_fw-la to_o our_o judgement_n shall_v be_v the_o merlyn_n because_o they_o be_v the_o less_o hawk_n of_o all_o other_o that_o be_v to_o be_v find_v of_o the_o hobby_n of_o all_o bird_n of_o prey_n that_o belong_v to_o the_o falconer_n use_v

somewhat_o less_o the_o wild_a goose_n and_o such_o other_o like_o fowl_n and_o therefore_o be_v excellent_a at_o the_o river_n or_o brook_n if_o you_o take_v the_o falcon_n gentle_a a_o eyesse_n you_o may_v bold_o flee_v the_o crane_n with_o she_o but_o if_o she_o be_v not_o a_o eyesse_n she_o will_v never_o be_v so_o hardy_a as_o to_o venture_v on_o the_o crane_n and_o therefore_o be_v a_o

and_o her_o train_n feather_n and_o for_o the_o most_o part_n all_o her_o long_a feather_n and_o flag_n be_v full_a of_o taint_n the_o good_a shape_n of_o a_o falcon._n that_o you_o may_v the_o better_o make_v choice_n of_o your_o falcon_n and_o know_v a_o good_a falcon_n from_o a_o refuse_n i_o will_v describe_v you_o the_o perfect_v shape_n of_o a_o right_n good_a falcon_n such_o a_o one_o as_o be_v very_o like_a to_o be_v good_a though_o many_o time_n we_o see_v that_o in_o proof_n the_o most_o likely_a thing_n to_o show_v &_o to_o the_o eye_n become_v in_o proof_n the_o worst_a and_o of_o least_o regard_n the_o shape_n of_o a_o good_a falcon_n therefore_o be_v first_o to_o have_v wide_o nares_fw-la high_a and_o large_a eyelid_n a_o great_a black_a eye_n a_o round_a head_n somewhat_o full_a on_o the_o top_n a_o short_a thick_a beak_n blue_a as_o azure_a a_o reasonable_a high_a neck_n barb_v feather_n under_o the_o clap_n of_o the_o beak_n a_o good_a large_a breast_n round_o fleshy_a strong_a hard_a and_o stiff_o bend_v and_o that_o be_v the_o true_a cause_n why_o the_o falcon_n do_v great_o affy_v in_o her_o breast_n and_o strike_v with_o it_o and_o gage_v it_o most_o at_o her_o encounter_n and_o by_o mean_a she_o be_v very_o strong_a arm_v she_o use_v the_o more_o free_o also_o to_o strike_v a_o foul_a with_o her_o pounce_n and_o talon_n moreover_o she_o must_v be_v broad_a shoulder_v she_o must_v have_v slender_a sail_n full_a side_n long_a and_o great_a thigh_n she_o must_v be_v strong_a and_o short_a arm_v large_a footed_a with_o the_o sear_n of_o the_o foot_n soft_a and_o all_o one_o for_o hew_v with_o the_o sear_n of_o the_o beak_n and_o nares_fw-la black_a pounce_n long_a wing_n and_o cross_v the_o train_n which_o train_n ought_v to_o be_v short_a and_o apt_a to_o bend_v and_o bow_n to_o every_o side_n for_o in_o the_o train_n of_o a_o hawk_n do_v consist_v a_o great_a help_n when_o she_o fly_v and_o therefore_o as_o well_o as_o for_o beauty_n if_o a_o train_n feather_n or_o covert_a feather_n be_v break_v or_o bruise_a we_o do_v covet_v to_o imp_n they_o again_o or_o set_v they_o to_o right_v because_o it_o may_v be_v the_o less_o hindrance_n to_o the_o hawk_n in_o her_o flight_n you_o must_v note_v that_o those_o very_a falcon_n that_o be_v of_o one_o kind_n and_o sort_n have_v very_o great_a difference_n and_o odds_n betwixt_o they_o and_o be_v call_v by_o diverse_a name_n according_a to_o the_o time_n that_o a_o man_n begin_v to_o deal_v with_o they_o &_o do_v undertake_v they_o according_a to_o the_o place_n where_o they_o haunt_v and_o according_a to_o the_o country_n whence_o they_o come_v they_o be_v divide_v into_o mew_v hawk_n rammage_n hawk_n sore_a hawk_n and_o eyess_n into_o large_a hawk_n mean_a hawk_n and_o slender_a hawk_n all_o which_o be_v of_o diverse_a and_o several_a plume_n and_o mail_n according_a to_o the_o diversity_n of_o the_o region_n also_o they_o be_v of_o diverse_a price_n

for_o that_o they_o be_v giddy_a head_v and_o sickle_n wherefore_o he_o that_o look_v to_o have_v good_a or_o credit_n by_o keep_v of_o they_o must_v be_v very_o circumspect_a and_o regard_v their_o

to_o who_o good_a judgement_n and_o industry_n i_o mean_v to_o refer_v and_o leave_v sundry_a thing_n which_o i_o leave_v unspoken_a of_o for_o that_o there_o be_v no_o man_n that_o be_v desirous_a of_o skill_n but_o may_v with_o ease_n and_o will_n with_o diligence_n i_o doubt_v not_o flee_v over_o to_o those_o very_a author_n in_o french_a and_o italian_a from_o whence_o i_o have_v make_v this_o brief_a collection_n where_o he_o shall_v be_v assure_v to_o find_v thing_n more_o at_o large_a set_v out_o but_o the_o effect_n unless_o i_o be_v deceive_v comprise_v in_o these_o few_o page_n of_o paper_n aswell_o concern_v the_o kind_n of_o hawk_n as_o also_o their_o manning_a lure_a flight_n mew_v disease_n and_o cure_n in_o every_o condition_n as_o i_o trust_v to_o the_o pleasure_n and_o profit_n of_o the_o gentle_a and_o willing_a reader_n wherefore_o i_o will_v now_o proceed_v to_o the_o haggart_n falcon_n a_o most_o excellent_a bird_n if_o her_o nature_n and_o property_n be_v observe_v in_o dew_n manner_n of_o the_o haggart_n falcon_n and_o why_o she_o be_v call_v the_o peregrine_n or_o haggart_n i_o have_v many_o time_n study_v with_o myself_o for_o what_o cause_n the_o haggart_n falcon_n the_o most_o excellent_a bird_n of_o all_o other_o falcon_n have_v be_v term_v haggart_n or_o peregrin_n hawk_n and_o at_o first_o be_v of_o opinion_n that_o man_n so_o call_v they_o for_o that_o they_o be_v bring_v unto_o we_o from_o far_a and_o foreign_a country_n and_o be_v in_o deed_n mere_a stranger_n in_o italy_n and_o as_o a_o man_n may_v call_v they_o travailer_n and_o this_o i_o know_v for_o truth_n they_o be_v not_o disclose_v or_o eyr_v in_o italy_n and_o beside_o that_o there_o be_v few_o in_o italy_n that_o do_v take_v they_o at_o any_o time_n but_o the_o great_a store_n of_o they_o be_v bring_v and_o convey_v thither_o from_o foreign_a regions·_fw-la but_o if_o they_o shall_v be_v term_v peregrine_n or_o haggart_n falcon_n for_o this_o only_a cause_n and_o only_o in_o respect_n hereof_o and_o nothing_o else_o then_o may_v we_o as_o well_o bestow_v that_o name_n also_o upon_o all_o other_o falcon_n that_o be_v not_o breed_v in_o italy_n as_o upon_o the_o tunician_a and_o other_o hawk_n that_o be_v passenger_n wherefore_o i_o be_o of_o opinion_n that_o for_o three_o cause_n principal_o and_o in_o chief_a they_o be_v call_v haggart_n or_o peregrine_n falcon_n 1_o first_o because_o a_o man_n can_v not_o find_v nor_o ever_o yet_o do_v any_o man_n christian_n or_o heathen_a find_v their_o eyrie_z in_o any_o region_n so_o as_o it_o may_v well_o be_v think_v that_o for_o that_o occasion_n they_o have_v achieve_v and_o get_v that_o name_n and_o term_v of_o peregrine_n or_o haggart_n falcon_n as_o if_o a_o man_n will_v call_v they_o pilgrim_n or_o foreigner_n 2_o the_o second_o cause_n be_v because_o these_o falcon_n do_v wrangle_v and_o wander_v more_o than_o any_o other_o sort_n of_o falcon_n be_v wont_a to_o do_v seek_v out_o more_o strange_a and_o uncouth_a country_n which_o in_o deed_n may_v give_v they_o that_o title_n of_o haggart_n and_o peregrine_n hawk_n for_o their_o excellency_n because_o they_o do_v seek_v so_o many_o strange_a and_o foreign_a coast_n and_o do_v wrangle_v so_o far_o abroad_o 3_o the_o third_o and_o last_o cause_n i_o do_v think_v may_v be_v their_o beauty_n and_o excellency_n because_o this_o word_n peregrino_n or_o peregrine_n do_v many_o time_n import_v a_o honourable_a and_o choice_a matter_n have_v in_o great_a regard_n but_o it_o skill_v not_o much_o which_o of_o these_o three_o allege_v be_v the_o true_a cause_n we_o will_v not_o stand_v upon_o the_o nice_a point_n for_o that_o a_o good_a falconer_n ought_v much_o more_o to_o regard_v the_o search_v out_o of_o the_o true_a nature_n and_o property_n of_o hawk_n than_o to_o have_v so_o great_a and_o special_a respect_n unto_o their_o name_n and_o term_n wherefore_o i_o conclude_v that_o these_o haggart_n falcon_n be_v not_o of_o italy_n but_o transport_v and_o bring_v thither_o from_o foreign_a place_n as_o namely_o from_o alexandria_n cyprus_n and_o candie_n and_o yet_o this_o be_v for_o certain_a that_o in_o italy_n there_o be_v take_v of_o these_o haggart_n falcon_n as_o in_o the_o dominion_n of_o the_o renown_a duke_n of_o ferrara_n and_o in_o the_o country_n near_o ravenna_n be_v bring_v thither_o by_o force_n of_o weather_n and_o wind_n and_o by_o that_o mean_n there_o be_v none_o of_o those_o haggart_n find_v eyess_n but_o they_o be_v all_o either_o sore_a hawk_n or_o mew_v haggart_n of_o shape_n and_o proportion_n they_o be_v like_o the_o other_o falcon_n and_o be_v of_o three_o sort_n as_o touch_v their_o make_n and_o mould_n that_o be_v to_o say_v large_a little_a or_o falcon_n of_o a_o middle_a size_n some_o of_o they_o be_v long_o shape_v some_o short_a truss_a falcon_n some_o large_a some_o less_o they_o be_v ordinary_o of_o four_o mail_n either_o blank_a russet_a brown_a or_o turtle_n mail_v and_o some_o pure_a white_a mail_v without_o any_o jot_n or_o spot_n of_o any_o other_o colour_n but_o those_o a_o man_n shall_v for_o seldom_o see_v and_o for_o that_o cause_n i_o mean_v not_o to_o say_v much_o of_o that_o kind_n of_o mayled_a falcon_n but_o will_v deal_v with_o such_o as_o be_v more_o ordinary_a in_o use_n of_o the_o good_a shape_n of_o a_o haggard_a falcon._n a_o good_a and_o right_a haggart_n falcon_n ought_v to_o have_v her_o head_n of_o a_o dark_a or_o blank_a plume_n flat_a on_o the_o top_n with_o a_o white_a wreath_n or_o garland_n environ_v her_o

general_o the_o most_o assure_a token_n of_o a_o excellent_a haggart_n falcon_n how_o to_o know_v a_o haggart_n by_o her_o flee_n a_o good_a skilful_a falconer_n will_v quick_o discern_v a_o good_a haggard_a falcon_n from_o a_o sleight_n falcon_n though_o he_o be_v far_o of_o by_o the_o stir_n of_o her_o wing_n for_o that_o a_o haggart_n falcon_n use_v not_o a_o thick_a stroke_n but_o stir_v her_o wing_n
