The signs and causes of their diseases, the means to prevent them, their cure, and the good or bad use of purging and bleeding. III. The way to order and preserve them, when upon travel, to feed, and to dress them. IV. The art of shoeing, according to a new design of shoes, which will recover bad feet, and preserve the good. Together with a treatise, how to raise and bring up a true and beautiful race of horses: as also instructions, whereby to fit all kinds of horses with proper bits, whereof the chief draughts are represented in copper-plates. / Written originally in French by the Sieur de Solleysel Escuyer, sometime one of the overseers of the French Kings Royal Academy of Riding, near to the Hostel de Conde in Paris. And translated from the last Paris impression, by Sir William Hope of Kirkliston Kt. Lieutenat Governour of the Castle of Edinburgh. By whom is also added as a supplement to the first part, a most compendious and excellent collection of horsemanship, taken from the best and most modern writers upon that subject, such as Mr. De la Brow, Pluvinel, and the Great Duke of Newcastle.

the_o worst_a nature_a jade_n in_o the_o world_n by_o nature_n be_v more_o easy_o dress_v and_o reduce_v to_o obedience_n than_o a_o horse_n who_o have_v be_v spoil_v and_o make_v resty_a by_o ill_a

it_o also_o so_o in_o horse_n who_o be_v account_v but_o poor_a irrational_a brute_n ten_o of_o a_o horse_n who_o force_v the_o rider_n hand_n common_o call_v a_o runaway_n for_o a_o runaway-horse_n you_o must_v have_v a_o gentle_a bite_v with_o a_o slack_a curb_n and_o easy_a cavezon_n that_o so_o nothing_o may_v hurt_v his_o mouth_n or_o trouble_v his_o nose_n for_o certain_o sharp_a cavezon_n

must_v also_o take_v care_n to_o keep_v a_o gentle_a and_o easy_a bridle_n hand_n that_o so_o you_o may_v offend_v he_o no_o manner_n of_o way_n and_o then_o walk_v he_o first_o without_o stop_v but_o only_o stey_v he_o upon_o the_o hand_n little_a by_o little_a and_o then_o trot_v he_o afterward_o put_v he_o from_o his_o trot_n to_o a_o walk_n also_o stay_v he_o by_o degree_n and_o always_o make_v much_o of_o he_o when_o he_o obey_v you_o when_o you_o find_v he_o thus_o far_o peaceable_a then_o put_v he_o from_o his_o trot_n to_o a_o gentle_a gallop_n and_o from_o the_o gallop_n to_o a_o trot_n and_o from_o a_o trot_n to_o a_o walk_n and_o then_o from_o his_o walk_n stay_v he_o little_a by_o little_a with_o a_o gentle_a hand_n and_o use_v this_o method_n for_o a_o while_n with_o patience_n and_o judgement_n you_o will_v in_o all_o probability_n prevent_v his_o ruune_n away_o but_o say_v you_o put_v the_o case_n he_o do_v run_v away_o what_o be_v to_o be_v do_v then_o for_o certain_a it_o be_v that_o the_o more_o the_o cavezon_n be_v pull_v the_o hard_a he_o will_v press_v upon_o the_o hand_n and_o fast_o he_o will_v run_v to_o oppose_v the_o rider_n and_o the_o more_o you_o pull_v the_o bridle_n reins_n and_o hurt_v he_o by_o straighten_v the_o curb_n the_o more_o he_o will_v pull_v and_o run_v the_o fast_o so_o that_o your_o pull_v will_n signity_n no_o more_o then_o if_o you_o pull_v a_o wall_n in_o answer_n to_o this_o
indeed_o wish_v that_o a_o horse_n which_o be_v design_v for_o a_o leper_n have_v one_o that_o be_v a_o good_a apuy_n which_o be_v neither_o too_o hard_a not_o too_o delicate_a but_o such_o a_o one_o as_o can_v endure_v a_o good_a pressure_n upon_o the_o barrs_n and_o so_o to_o suffer_v the_o curb_n which_o be_v what_o be_v to_o be_v understand_v by_o a_o good_a mouth_n yet_o i_o must_v tell_v you_o there_o have_v be_v many_o rate_n leap_v horse_n which_o have_v not_o at_o all_o go_v upon_o the_o curb_n but_o upon_o the_o barrs_n for_o which_o they_o be_v not_o to_o be_v commend_v but_o it_o be_v better_a for_o to_o have_v they_o leap_v so_o be_v so_o rare_a horse_n than_o not_o to_o suffer_v they_o to_o leap_v at_o all_o because_o they_o go_v not_o upon_o the_o curb_n but_o for_o the_o three_o property_n of_o a_o leap_a horse_n which_o be_v that_o he_o shall_v be_v very_o strong_a be_v i_o think_v a_o very_a great_a error_n because_o it_o be_v not_o the_o strong_a horse_n which_o be_v fit_a for_o the_o delight_n of_o the_o manage_v especial_o to_o be_v leap_v horse_n and_o the_o reason_n be_v when_o horse_n be_v very_o strong_a they_o must_v be_v gallop_v a_o long_a time_n before_o you_o can_v abaite_v the_o strength_n of_o their_o chine_n and_o all_o that_o while_o they_o will_v do_v nothing_o but_o yerk_v and_o give_v such_o disorder_a countertime_n and_o false_a leap_n that_o the_o best_a horseman_n in_o the_o world_n shall_v never_o make_v good_a leper_n of_o they_o so_o you_o see_v they_o be_v not_o the_o strong_a but_o best_o dispose_v horse_n which_o be_v the_o fit_a to_o be_v make_v leper_n i_o shall_v yet_o further_o confirm_v this_o truth_n by_o a_o comparison_n take_v from_o man_n for_o take_v one_o of_o the_o strong_a fellow_n you_o can_v get_v and_o i_o shall_v bring_v a_o little_a man_n that_o shall_v outleap_v he_o several_a foot_n yet_o that_o strong_a fellow_n will_v crush_v the_o little_a one_o to_o death_n in_o his_o arm_n so_o you_o see_v it_o be_v not_o strength_n but_o disposition_n that_o fit_v horse_n as_o well_o as_o man_n for_o leap_v it_o be_v true_a that_o sometime_o a_o great_a and_o strong_a fellow_n will_v outleap_v a_o little_a man_n but_o that_o be_v rare_a because_o the_o spirit_n of_o such_o big_a man_n be_v more_o dilate_v and_o diffuse_v than_o in_o little_a man_n the_o like_a be_v i_o assure_v you_o in_o horse_n as_o well_o as_o among_o man_n for_o there_o may_v be_v a_o strong_a horse_n dispose_v for_o leap_v and_o that_o horse_n will_v no_o doubt_n be_v a_o excellent_a leper_n but_o for_o the_o most_o part_n they_o be_v weak_a horse_n which_o be_v most_o dispose_v for_o leap_v sometime_o also_o horse_n which_o be_v very_o weak_a find_v themselves_o so_o pinch_v upon_o the_o haunch_n with_o corvet_n that_o they_o find_v ease_n in_o leap_v thus_o you_o see_v then_o that_o horse_n be_v general_o more_o dispose_v by_o nature_n than_o be_v for_o leap_v which_o be_v when_o they_o be_v full_a of_o spirit_n and_o light_n so_o that_o horseman_n have_v nothing_o almost_o to_o do_v in_o make_v leap_a horse_n but_o only_o to_o give_v they_o the_o time_n which_o be_v the_o great_a part_n of_o the_o art_n which_o be_v to_o be_v make_v use_n of_o in_o make_v of_o they_o and_o he_o who_o think_v to_o show_v more_o of_o his_o art_n in_o dress_v a_o horse_n for_o leap_n in_o stead_n of_o show_v his_o skill_n discover_v only_o more_o of_o his_o own_o ignorance_n and_o folly_n therefore_o the_o short_a and_o only_o true_a way_n to_o dress_v all_o leap_a horse_n be_v this_o which_o follow_v first_o then_o for_o capriol_n walk_v your_o horse_n forward_o and_o then_o cause_v he_o make_v one_o leap_n present_o after_o raise_v he_o high_a upon_o a_o pesate_n or_o two_o and_o stay_v and_o keep_v he_o upon_o the_o hand_n and_o thus_o augment_v your_o leap_n and_o diminish_v your_o pesate_n he_o will_v by_o little_a and_o little_o leap_v perfect_o and_o after_o he_o be_v perfect_a upon_o a_o straight_a line_n foreward_n than_o you_o may_v put_v he_o upon_o volt_n or_o circle_n and_o continue_v the_o same_o method_n but_o the_o circle_n must_v be_v a_o little_a large_a at_o first_o and_o you_o must_v remember_v when_o you_o raise_v he_o to_o leap_v that_o you_o help_v he_o with_o your_o rod_n behind_o as_o i_o have_v already_o show_v you_o in_o the_o chapter_n where_o i_o discourse_n of_o all_o the_o help_n and_o do_v it_o with_o one_o or_o more_o stroke_n as_o you_o please_v so_o it_o be_v do_v in_o time_n which_o be_v when_o he_o be_v raise_v before_o and_o always_o when_o you_o be_v do_v leap_v cause_v he_o make_v a_o high_a pesate_n or_o two_o as_o for_o your_o seat_n it_o must_v be_v straight_o and_o your_o stirrup_n a_o little_o short_a than_o ordinary_a suppose_v a_o hole_n or_o so_o for_o too_o short_a will_v throw_v you_o out_o of_o the_o saddle_n and_o too_o long_o will_v disorder_v your_o seat_n and_o make_v you_o lose_v your_o stirrup_n you_o must_v also_o keep_v your_o toe_n a_o little_a down_o to_o slack_v your_o nerve_n from_o the_o knee_n downward_o or_o else_o the_o horse_n will_v bolt_n too_o much_o forward_o each_o leap_n for_o a_o leap_a horse_n shall_v never_o go_v foreward_n above_o a_o foot_n and_o a_o half_a at_o most_o with_o one_o leap_n and_o when_o you_o raise_v he_o instant_o put_v your_o breast_n out_o which_o will_v make_v your_o shoulder_n go_v a_o little_a back_n though_o unsensible_a to_o the_o beholder_n for_o if_o you_o do_v it_o not_o just_a as_o the_o horse_n rise_v before_o it_o will_v be_v to_o late_o to_o do_v it_o when_o he_o rise_v behind_o and_o strike_v out_o i_o must_v also_o tell_v you_o that_o your_o thigh_n and_o knee_n must_v be_v as_o close_o as_o if_o they_o be_v glue_v to_o the_o saddle_n and_o for_o your_o bridle_n hand_n you_o must_v always_o make_v it_o work_v the_o outward_a rein_n to_o bring_v in_o the_o horse_n outward_a shoulder_n and_o narrow_a he_o before_o and_o enlarge_v he_o behind_o that_o so_o he_o may_v be_v press_v upon_o the_o inside_n of_o the_o turn_v and_o at_o liberty_n without_o that_o his_o croup_n may_v go_v a_o little_a out_o and_o be_v the_o more_o free_a and_o at_o liberty_n for_o be_v his_o croup_n subject_v or_o bind_v up_o he_o can_v not_o leap_v therefore_o the_o outward_a rein_n be_v to_o be_v use_v for_o all_o leap_n whatsoever_o either_o straight_a foreward_n or_o upon_o circle_n and_o here_o i_o will_v also_o tell_v you_o a_o kind_n of_o secret_a for_o the_o hand_n when_o you_o be_v leap_v a_o horse_n which_o be_v this_o the_o bridle_n be_v a_o little_a long_o than_o ordinary_a raise_v your_o horse_n well_o and_o every_o time_n when_o he_o be_v beginning_n to_o rise_v behind_o put_v your_o bridle_n
