shall_v give_v no_o heat_n except_o in_o case_n of_o extremity_n in_o rain_n or_o foul_a weather_n but_o rather_o to_o defer_v hour_n and_o change_v time_n for_o it_o be_v unwholesome_a and_o

therefore_o once_o again_o thus_o for_o ordinary_a keep_n of_o give_v heat_n hunt_v and_o travel_n but_o if_o you_o intend_v to_o give_v a_o heat_n as_o to_o hunt_v gallop_n travel_n or_o the_o like_a which_o i_o will_v wish_v you_o to_o do_v once_o twice_o or_o thrice_o a_o week_n according_a to_o the_o ability_n of_o your_o horse_n then_o observe_v all_o your_o former_a observation_n only_o the_o
