of_o the_o treble_n be_v both_o three_o to_o the_o bass_n but_o in_o the_o second_o stroke_n the_o first_o note_n of_o the_o treble_n be_v a_o three_o and_o the_o second_o which_o be_v before_o a_o

the_o bass_n for_o according_a to_o the_o former_a rule_n if_o the_o bass_n descend_v the_o three_o then_o in_o the_o treble_n be_v to_o pass_v into_o the_o eight_o and_o the_o mean_a must_v first_o take_v a_o eight_o than_o a_o five_o and_o the_o tenor_n a_o five_o than_o a_o three_o and_o these_o be_v also_o the_o right_n and_o proper_a part_n if_o you_o return_v the_o eight_o of_o the_o

and_o suppose_v that_o the_o bass_n shall_v use_v a_o sharp_a what_o be_v then_o to_o be_v do_v as_o if_o thus_o if_o you_o call_v to_o mind_v the_o rule_n deliver_v concern_v the_o sharp_a bass_n you_o shall_v here_o by_o help_n thereof_o see_v the_o right_a part_n though_o you_o can_v bring_v they_o under_o the_o rule_n for_o if_o the_o first_o note_n of_o the_o bass_n have_v be_v flat_a the_o mean_a part_n shall_v have_v take_v that_o and_o so_o have_v descend_v to_o the_o five_o but_o be_v sharp_a you_o take_v for_o it_o according_a to_o the_o former_a observation_n the_o three_o to_o the_o bass_n and_o so_o rise_v up_o into_o the_o five_o the_o tenor_n that_o shall_v take_v a_o five_o and_o so_o fall_v by_o degree_n into_o a_o three_o be_v here_o force_v by_o reason_n of_o the_o sharp_a bass_n for_o a_o five_o to_o take_v a_o six_o and_o so_o leap_v downward_o into_o the_o three_o and_o so_o much_o for_o the_o three_o last_o in_o favour_n of_o young_a beginner_n let_v i_o also_o add_v this_o that_o the_o bass_n intend_v a_o close_a as_o often_o as_o it_o rise_v a_o five_o three_o or_o second_o and_o then_o immediate_o either_o fall_v a_o five_o or_o rise_v a_o four_o in_o like_a manner_n if_o the_o bass_n fall_v a_o four_o or_o second_o and_o after_o fall_v a_o fi●th_n the_o bass_n insinuate_v a_o close_a and_o in_o all_o these_o case_n the_o part_n must_v hold_v that_o in_o hold_v can_v use_v the_o four_o or_o eleven_o and_o so_o pass_v either_o in_o the_o three_o or_o ten_o thus_o or_o thus_o thus_o or_o thus_o thus_o or_o thus_o thus_o or_o thus_o
