thyself_o have_v eke_o above_o all_o other_o praise_n to_o h●…llow_v well_o in_o hollow_a wood_n unto_o thy_o hound_n always_o ●…so_o i_o have_v see_v in_o a_o chronicle_n in_o the_o town_n of_o lambale_n a_o chapter_n which_o make_v mention_n that_o a_o lord_n of_o the_o say_a place_n with_o a_o kennel_n of_o fallow_a and_o red_a hound_n do_v rouse_v a_o stag_n in_o a_o forest_n of_o the_o county_n of_o poiucti●…ur_n and_o do_v hunt_v and_o pursue_v he_o by_o the_o space_n of_o four_o day_n in_o such_o sort_n that_o the_o four_o day_n he_o take_v he_o near_o to_o the_o city_n of_o paris_n and_o it_o be_v to_o be_v presume_v that_o the_o fallow_a hound_n be_v the_o ancient_a hound_n of_o the_o duke_n and_o lord_n of_o britain_n of_o the_o which_o the_o lord_n admiral_n d'anybauld_a and_o his_o predecessor_n have_v always_o keep_v and_o maintain_v the_o race_n the_o which_o come_v first_o to_o be_v common_a in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o great_a king_n frances_n father_n of_o hunter_n these_o fallow_a hound_n be_v hardy_a and_o of_o good_a send_v keep_v very_o well_o their_o chase_n without_o change_n and_o be_v almost_o of_o the_o same_o complexion_n that_o the_o white_a hound_n be_v save_v that_o they_o endure_v not_o heat_v so_o well_o nor_o yet_o the_o press_n or_o throng_n of_o the_o pricker_n and_o gallopper_n but_o they_o be_v swift_a more_o universal_a for_o all_o chase_n and_o hot_a in_o hunt_v and_o if_o it_o chance_v that_o a_o beast_n do_v stray_v out_o in_o the_o champagne_n or_o the_o field_n they_o yet_o do_v never_o light_o forsake_v the_o chase_n their_o complexion_n be_v strong_a for_o they_o fear_v neither_o the_o cold_a nor_o the_o water_n and_o they_o run_v sure_o and_o be_v very_o hardy_a they_o be_v fair_a hunter_n love_v common_o the_o heart_n better_o than_o any_o other_o kind_n of_o chase_n and_o they_o be_v more_o opinionate_a and_o hard_a to_o be_v teach_v than_o the_o white_a hound_n and_o so_o be_v they_o able_a to_o endure_v great_a pain_n and_o travail_n the_o best_a that_o you_o shall_v find_v of_o the_o race_n of_o these_o fallow_a hound_n be_v those_o which_o have_v their_o hair_n most_o lively_o read_v and_o such_o as_o have_v a_o white_a spot_n in_o their_o forehead_n or_o a_o ring_n about_o their_o neck_n and_o likewise_o those_o which_o be_v all_o altogether_o fallow_a but_o those_o that_o be_v light_a yellow_a be_v mark_v or_o spot_v with_o black_a or_o dun_a be_v not_o great_o to_o be_v esteem_v those_o which_o be_v well_o joint_v and_o dewclaw_v be_v best_a to_o make_v bloodhound_n &_o there_o be_v some_o which_o have_v their_o tail_n shag_v like_o ear_n of_o corn_n &_o those_o be_v common_o good_a &_o swift_a &_o since_o prince_n at_o these_o day_n have_v mingle_v the_o raze_n of_o fallow_a hound_n one_o with_o a_o other_o therefore_o they_o be_v become_v much_o strong_a and_o better_a for_o the_o heart_n the_o which_o be_v the_o right_a chase_n to_o yield_v pleasure_n unto_o king_n and_o prince_n but_o such_o hound_n be_v not_o meet_v for_o mean_a gentleman_n because_o they_o be_v common_o but_o for_o one_o chase_n and_o they_o pass_v not_o great_o for_o the_o hare_n and_o other_o small_a chase_n and_o again_o they_o be_v much_o incline_v to_o run_v at_o tame_a beast_n of_o the_o complexion_n and_o nature_n of_o dun_a hound_n chap._n 4._o our_o dun_a hound_n be_v such_o as_o ancient_o our_o king_n of_o france_n and_o duke_n of_o alencon_n do_v most_o esteem_v they_o be_v common_a because_o they_o be_v fit_v for_o most_o chase_n and_o therefore_o they_o be_v fit_a for_o gentleman_n for_o their_o nature_n and_o complexion_n be_v such_o that_o they_o hunt_v all_o kind_n of_o chase_n which_o you_o will_v have_v they_o to_o hunt_v the_o best_a of_o the_o race_n be_v such_o as_o be_v do_v on_o the_o back_n have_v their_o four_o quarter_n red_a or_o tan_v and_o the_o leg_n of_o the_o ●…ame_n colour_n as_o it_o be_v the-coloure_n of_o a_o hare_n leg_n sometime_o you_o shall_v see_v some_o that_o have_v their_o hair_n on_o the_o top_n of_o their_o back_n dun_a or_o almost_o black_a and_o their_o leg_n streak_v and_o fleck_v with_o red_a and_o black_a the_o which_o do_v common_o prove_v excellent_a and_o although_o there_o be_v not_o many_o bad_a dun_a hound_n to_o be_v see_v yet_o nevertheless_o the_o light_a dun_a have_v their_o leg_n fallow_a after_o a_o whitish_a colour_n be_v seldom_o so_o stronng_a nor_o so_o swift_a as_o the_o other_o be_v and_o prince_n can_v not_o so_o much_o delight_n in_o they_o for_o sundry_a eause_n one_o cause_n be_v for_o that_o they_o do_v much_o fear_v the_o throng_n of_o the_o huntsman_n on_o horseback_n and_o they_o be_v trouble_v with_o their_o noise_n for_o as_o much_o as_o they_o be_v hot_a and_o of_o a_o great_a courage_n and_o put_v themselves_o quick_o out_o of_o breath_n hear_v the_o cry_v and_o noise_n of_o the_o hunter_n another_o cause_n be_v that_o they_o fear_v heat_n and_o do_v not_o great_o esteem_v a_o chase_n which_o double_v or_o turn_v before_o they_o but_o if_o the_o chase_n hold_v endlong_o you_o shall_v hardly_o find_v better_a or_o swyft_a hound_n although_o they_o be_v very_o opinionate_a hard_a to_o believe_v their_o huntsman_n and_o very_o easy_o incline_v to_o change_v because_o of_o they●…_n heat_n and_o folly_n and_o
