barren_a palladius_n columella_n and_o myself_o be_o much_o different_a in_o opinion_n for_o they_o will_v have_v such_o mare_n as_o be_v beautiful_a and_o fair_a and_o there_o with_o all_o have_v be_v well_o cover_v and_o have_v fair_a colt_n foal_v not_o to_o be_v cover_v every_o year_n but_o once_o in_o two_o year_n nay_o once_o in_o three_o year_n their_o reason_n be_v that_o their_o foal_v may_v thereby_o have_v the_o long_a time_n to_o suck_v and_o for_o such_o mare_n as_o be_v soul_n and_o have_v foul_a foal_v to_o be_v cover_v every_o year_n as_o if_o they_o will_v give_v rule_n to_o breed_v bad_a thing_n often_o and_o good_a thing_n seldom_o now_o for_o my_o opinion_n first_o where_o they_o make_v a_o distinction_n betwixt_o fair_a mare_n and_o foul_a mare_n i_o will_v have_v every_o breeder_n so_o near_o as_o he_o can_v not_o to_o preserve_v one_o foul_a or_o uncomely_a mare_n in_o his_o race_n or_o if_o he_o have_v any_o such_o to_o breed_v so_o seldom_o upon_o they_o as_o may_v be_v so_o that_o compose_v his_o studd_n all_o of_o fair_a mare_n he_o shall_v by_o palladius_n rule_v breed_v but_o once_o in_o three_o year_n a_o husbandry_n in_o my_o conceit_n very_o unprofitable_a but_o to_o come_v to_o our_o purpose_n i_o will_v have_v every_o one_o that_o breed_v horse_n not_o to_o let_v any_o mare_n he_o have_v to_o go_v over_o except_o it_o be_v that_o some_o of_o his_o mare_n miscarry_v and_o cast_v their_o foal_v which_o if_o any_o do_v than_o i_o will_v have_v such_o mare_n to_o go_v over_o for_o a_o year_n at_o least_o because_o if_o they_o be_v cover_v the_o next_o year_n after_o they_o be_v in_o danger_n to_o cast_v their_o foal_v again_o although_o they_o have_v no_o mischance_n as_o for_o palladius_n reason_n that_o they_o shall_v go_v over_o for_o the_o bring_n up_o of_o their_o foal_v he_o be_v much_o mistake_v for_o a_o foal_n do_v not_o suck_v any_o great_a quantity_n of_o milk_n above_o nine_o month_n the_o other_o three_o month_n he_o suck_v but_o by_o snatch_n and_o for_o wantonness_n so_o that_o the_o mare_n be_v with_o foal_n do_v not_o any_o thing_n at_o all_o hinder_v the_o foal_v nourishment_n beside_o the_o foal_v suck_v upon_o the_o mare_n keep_v the_o mare_n in_o a_o good_a estate_n of_o body_n rather_o lean_a then_o fat_a so_o that_o when_o she_o shall_v come_v to_o be_v cover_v she_o will_v soon_o hold_v soon_o bring_v forth_o a_o colt_n foal_n and_o have_v more_o room_n and_o a_o large_a bed_n for_o her_o foal_n to_o tumble_v in_o whereas_o shall_v she_o be_v suffer_v to_o go_v over_o a_o year_n or_o two_o in_o that_o time_n of_o her_o barrenness_n she_o will_v grow_v so_o fat_a that_o she_o will_v hardly_o hold_v or_o if_o she_o do_v hold_v her_o womb_n will_v be_v so_o close_v up_o
