extraordinary_a method_n for_o dress_v of_o horse_n that_o a_o man_n must_v needs_o either_o own_o and_o acknowledge_v it_o to_o be_v by_o far_o the_o best_a that_o ever_o yet_o be_v publish_v or_o otherways_o deny_v and_o renounce_v the_o solid_a argument_n of_o reason_n and_o experience_n but_o that_o which_o render_v his_o write_n yet_o the_o more_o wonderful_a be_v that_o they_o shall_v be_v compile_v by_o a_o person_n of_o so_o great_a a_o quality_n and_o plentiful_a fortune_n such_o person_n have_v common_o either_o not_o great_a inclination_n so_o much_o to_o stretch_n their_o invention_n as_o to_o be_v the_o first_o propogator_n of_o any_o thing_n which_o be_v new_a or_o otherways_o the_o great_a hurry_n they_o be_v in_o about_o business_n not_o allow_v they_o so_o much_o spare_v time_n as_o to_o reflect_v upon_o they_o therefore_o our_o english_a nation_n be_v so_o much_o the_o more_o beholden_a to_o this_o noble_a author_n who_o not_o only_o be_v at_o the_o trouble_n to_o convass_v the_o ancient_a writer_n and_o discover_v their_o error_n but_o also_o to_o make_v a_o new_a discovery_n of_o his_o own_o and_o leave_v it_o to_o they_o as_o a_o monument_n by_o which_o the_o nation_n which_o be_v former_o behold_v to_o foreign_a horseman_n be_v at_o present_a make_v capable_a if_o the_o neglect_n be_v not_o their_o own_o not_o only_o of_o become_v skilful_a horseman_n at_o home_n and_o consequent_o to_o stand_v no_o more_o in_o need_n of_o stranger_n to_o instruct_v they_o but_o also_o of_o contribute_v to_o the_o improvement_n of_o their_o neighbour_a nation_n who_o do_v all_o with_o one_o accord_n just_o acknowledge_v he_o to_o have_v be_v not_o only_o the_o great_a but_o the_o most_o exact_a and_o skilful_a horseman_n who_o ever_o write_v the_o english_a author_n who_o have_v write_v since_o be_v for_o the_o most_o part_n rather_o collector_n and_o copier_n then_o original_a author_n i_o shall_v not_o name_v they_o and_o thus_o much_o of_o the_o author_n whither_o italian_a french_a or_o english_a who_o first_o put_v pen_n to_o paper_n upon_o this_o so_o noble_a heroick_n and_o gentlemany_n a_o subject_n chap._n ii_o that_o it_o be_v a_o very_a foolish_a thing_n and_o a_o token_n of_o great_a ignorance_n in_o the_o art_n to_o think_v the_o manage_v useless_a many_o people_n say_v that_o all_o thing_n in_o the_o manage_v be_v but_o trick_n dance_a ii_o chap_n ii_o and_o gambol_n and_o of_o no_o use_n but_o by_o their_o leave_n who_o ever_o say_v so_o be_v very_o much_o deceive_v for_o a_o horse_n that_o be_v well_o settle_a and_o firm_a upon_o the_o hand_n and_o obedient_a to_o the_o heel_n gallop_v the_o field_n and_o change_v just_a and_o as_o often_o as_o you_o please_v and_o that_o either_o without_o or_o within_o the_o circle_n serpiger_n terra_fw-la a_o terra_fw-la the_o pyroite_fw-fr or_o what_o other_o air_n you_o please_v i_o say_v all_o that_o be_v so_o necessary_a and_o useful_a that_o a_o good_a horseman_n upon_o such_o a_o horse_n will_v have_v in_o all_o conscience_n but_o too_o great_a a_o advantage_n against_o any_o person_n who_o talk_v against_o it_o either_o in_o a_o single_a combat_n or_o in_o the_o war_n for_o a_o ready_a horse_n will_v run_v stop_v turn_v go_v back_o and_o if_o he_o rise_v he_o know_v how_o to_o come_v down_o again_o and_o be_v also_o so_o well_o upon_o the_o hand_n that_o you_o can_v pull_v he_o over_o with_o both_o your_o hand_n and_o so_o obedient_a that_o you_o may_v run_v he_o on_o fire_n water_n or_o sword_n and_o he_o shall_v answer_v you_o now_o all_o this_o can_v be_v do_v but_o by_o the_o art_n of_o ride_v and_o that_o in_o the_o manage_v beside_o it_o be_v to_o be_v observe_v that_o all_o horse_n which_o have_v be_v riden_n when_o young_a by_o understand_a horseman_n although_o they_o be_v no_o way_n manage_v yet_o they_o will_v be_v the_o better_a for_o it_o all_o their_o life-time_n for_o they_o will_v be_v more_o agreeable_a and_o nimble_a and_o go_v a_o great_a deal_n better_o and_o with_o more_o ease_n than_o if_o they_o have_v not_o be_v rid_v by_o such_o a_o horseman_n i_o believe_v there_o be_v but_o very_o few_o who_o will_v contradict_v this_o evident_a truth_n but_o what_o make_v these_o man_n speak_v against_o it_o the_o first_o reason_n be_v because_o they_o be_v ignorant_a and_o so_o speak_v as_o the_o wise_a man_n in_o the_o world_n must_v do_v when_o they_o discourse_v of_o any_o thing_n they_o understand_v not_o and_o think_v that_o talk_n will_v carry_v it_o but_o the_o main_a reason_n be_v this_o they_o find_v they_o can_v ride_v well_o nay_o indeed_o not_o at_o all_o a_o managed_a horse_n and_o yet_o they_o will_v be_v esteem_v the_o fine_a man_n in_o the_o world_n for_o all_o thing_n though_o they_o will_v take_v pain_n for_o nothing_o and_o because_o forsooth_o they_o can_v ride_v by_o inspiration_n and_o without_o take_v the_o least_o pain_n to_o acquire_v it_o therefore_o it_o be_v worth_a nothing_o and_o of_o no_o use_n but_o if_o every_o thing_n else_o be_v naught_o that_o they_o can_v do_v there_o will_v be_v very_o few_o good_a thing_n in_o the_o world_n the_o nixt_a thing_n be_v that_o they_o think_v it_o a_o disgrace_n for_o a_o gentleman_n to_o do_v any_o thing_n well_o what_o be_v a_o rider_n why_o not_o many_o king_n and_o prince_n have_v think_v themselves_o grace_v by_o be_v good_a horseman_n yea_o our_o present_a and_o most_o gracious_a king_n be_v not_o only_o a_o very_a graceful_a horseman_n but_o also_o take_v great_a delight_n in_o ride_v and_o i_o there_fw-mi say_v think_v it_o no_o disgrace_n that_o he_o be_v repute_v a_o good_a horseman_n i_o will_v therefore_o desire_v such_o people_n to_o be_v more_o merciful_a and_o to_o think_v it_o no_o disgrace_n for_o they_o to_o be_v horseman_n but_o still_o the_o old_a business_n do_v stick_v with_o they_o which_o be_v they_o can_v do_v it_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v nought_o a_o very_a good_a and_o gentlemany_a reason_n indeed_o but_o i_o must_v tell_v they_o that_o he_o who_o will_v take_v pain_n for_o nothing_o shall_v never_o do_v any_o thing_n well_o for_o art_n science_n and_o good_a quality_n come_v not_o by_o instinct_n but_o be_v get_v by_o great_a labour_n study_v and_o practice_n but_o it_o seem_v such_o gentleman_n resolve_v to_o understand_v none_o of_o they_o until_o they_o be_v as_o easy_o learn_v as_o wench_a and_o drink_v rail_a and_o wear_v fine_a clothes_n and_o feather_n but_o let_v we_o now_o see_v how_o these_o spark_n be_v on_o horseback_n and_o what_o their_o horse_n do_v under_o they_o first_o these_o cavalier_n sit_v as_o far_o back_o in_o the_o saddle_n as_o they_o can_v their_o leg_n streatched_a foreward_n before_o the_o shoulder_n of_o the_o horse_n and_o their_o toe_n a_o great_a deal_n better_o turn_v out_o than_o if_o they_o be_v walk_v a_o foot_n that_o so_o they_o may_v with_o the_o more_o ease_n spurr_n their_o horse_n in_o the_o shoulder_n they_o stoop_v in_o the_o back_n and_o lean_a very_o much_o foreward_n which_o they_o call_v a_o comely_a seat_n neither_o know_v they_o how_o to_o hold_v the_o bridle_n or_o guess_v at_o any_o help_n at_o all_o but_o appear_v on_o horseback_n as_o if_o they_o be_v three_o quarter_n fox_v so_o ridiculous_a be_v that_o seat_n and_o have_v send_v to_o a_o saddler_n or_o bit-maker_n to_o bite_v their_o horse_n all_o be_v well_o be_v mount_v thus_o as_o i_o tell_v you_o let_v we_o now_o see_v the_o readiness_n of_o their_o horse_n and_o their_o own_o horsemanship_n and_o address_n when_o they_o will_v turn_v to_o the_o right_a hand_n their_o horse_n turn_v to_o the_o left_a and_o when_o they_o will_v turn_v to_o the_o left_a their_o horse_n turn_v to_o the_o right_n when_o they_o will_v stop_v their_o horse_n run_v away_o when_o they_o will_v go_v foreward_n their_o horse_n rest_n and_o run_v back_o when_o they_o will_v put_v they_o back_o their_o horse_n rise_v and_o come_v over_o upon_o they_o and_o there_o my_o good_a horseman_n lie_v until_o a_o surgeon_n or_o bonesetter_n be_v send_v for_o and_o it_o be_v good_a if_o they_o be_v not_o kill_v nay_o their_o horse_n will_v come_v near_o neither_o drum_n trumpet_z or_o colour_n pistol_n or_o sword_n but_o they_o fetch_v forty_o fegary_n to_o endanger_v their_o rider_n now_o these_o be_v the_o excellent_a horseman_n and_o the_o ready_a horse_n for_o service_n and_o how_o be_v it_o possible_a to_o be_v otherways_o when_o the_o horse_n know_v not_o how_o to_o answer_v either_o heel_n or_o hand_n and_o their_o rider_n be_v as_o ignorant_a if_o not_o more_o than_o they_o whence_o it_o follow_v that_o there_o be_v nothing_o so_o fit_a to_o make_v a_o sure_a and_o ready_a horse_n as_o the_o manage_v therefore_o every_o horse_n
