Herein was the Emperour Domitian so cunning that let a Boy a good distance off hold vp his hand stretch his fingers abroad he would shoote through the spaces without touching the Boyes hand or any finger And Commodus saith Herodian had so good an aime that he would fixe on the brow of a Deere two shafts as euenly and spreading in distance as if they had beene his owne hornes But for the further excellence and vse of this exercise I referre you to that excellent booke of M. Aschams intituled Toxophilus wherein you shall finde whatsoeuer is requisite to be knowne of a compleate Archer Hawking and Hunting are recreations very commendable and befitting a Noble or Gentleman to exercise Hunting especially which Xenophon commendeth to his Cyrus calling it a gift of the Gods bestowed first vpon Chiron for his vprightnesse in doing Iustice and by him taught vnto the old Heroës and Princes by whose vertue and prowesse as enabled by this exercise their Countries were defended their subiects and innocents preserued Iustice maintained For there is no one exercise that enableth the body more for the warre then Hunting by teaching you to endure heate cold hunger thirst to rise early watch late lie and fare hardly and Eusebius is of opinion that wilde beasts were of purpose created by God that men by chasing and encountring them might be fitted and enabled for warlike exercises Heereupon Alexander Cyrus and the old Kings of Persia employed themselues exceeding much herein not to purchase Venison and purucy for the belly but to maintaine their strength and preserue their health by encreasing and stirring vp the naturall heate within which sloth and sitting still wasts and decaies To harden the bodies by labour against the enemy and withall to search out the Natures of wilde beasts which knowne they might leaue the same recorded to their posteritie And the famous Phisitian Quercetan aboue all other exercises commendeth this as most healthfull and keeping the bodie sound and free from diseases The old Lord Gray our English Achilles when hee was Deputie of Ireland to inure his sonnes for the war would vsually in the depth of Winter in frost snow raine and what weather soeuer fell cause them at midnight to be raised out of their beds and carried abroad on hunting till the next morning then perhaps come wet and cold home hauing for a breakfast a browne loase and a mouldie Cheese or which is ten times worse a dish of Irish Butter and in this manner the Spartans and Laconians dieted and brought vp their children till they came vnto mans estate Hawking was a sport vtterly vnknowne to the ancients as Blondinus and P. Iouius in the second booke of his Historie where he entreateth of the Muscouitish affaires witnesseth but was inuented and first practised by Fredericke Barbarossa when he besieged Rome yet it appeareth by Firmicus that it was knowne twelue hundred yeares since where he speaketh of Falconers and teachers of other Birds and indeed beyond him I thinke it can no where be found that Falconrie was knowne There haue beene many who haue written of Falconrie Fredericke the second Emperour of Germany whom Melancthon worthily commendeth and equalleth to the ancient Heroës for his many victories archieued by his valour his skill in all learning being able to speake foureteene seuerall languages his libertie magnificence affabilitie milâ—nesse c.

Blundeuiles booke is the best that I know By the Canon Law Hawking was forbidden vnto Clergie men as afterward Hunting by reason the exercise and instruments wherewith beasts are slaine are militarie and not so well agreeing as they giue the reason with spirituall warfare but I cannot see but that they many of them being great Princes and pillars of the Church daily employed and pressed with the weight of State affaires may haue their recreatioÌ„s as well as others But to preuent their pastime there is such an order taken with their Parkes that many of our best Bishopricks can now adaies scarce shew one of ten or twentie Norwich had thirteene Parkes and of all other was most iniustly dealt withall If they had taken away twelue and left the odde one it had beene indifferent but to rob the Church of all was more then too much But as allow not altogether that seuere education of the old Spartanâ— in their Children hazzarding many times the healths of young and tender bodies by some tedious ague yea also their liues by the mischance of a leape or stumbling of your horse so as much doe I detest that effoeminacie of the most that burne out day and night in their beds and by the fire side in trifles gaming or courting their yellow Mistresses all the Winter in a Citie appearing but as Cuckoes in the Spring one time in the yeare to the Countrey and their tenants leauing the care of keeping good houses at Christmas to the honest Yeomen of the Countrey Some againe are so intent to their pleasure that they neuer care for keeping within as sometime was Mithridates that it is reported of him For seauen yeares space together hee neuer came within house neither in Citie nor in the Countrey And Barnaby Viscount of Millan was so carried away with the loue of Hunting that hee made a Law whosoeuer should kill any wilde Boare or had killed any in fiue yeares before that his Statute was enacted contrary vnto an ancient Edict or were priuy to the eating of any at any Gentlemans table should be imprisoned and tortured after a greeuous manner Beside he afflicted the Countrey marueilously by dispersing many thousands of Dogges to be kept and brought vp in villages and among the Paisants to their infinite trouble and charge Mahomet Sonne to
