IT is the judgement of all, that a Hare ^oth natu- 

 rally know the change of Weather from twenty 

 four hours to twenty four hours. When (he goeth to 

 her Form, (he will fuffer the Dew to touch her as lit- 

 tle as (he can, but foUoweth the High- ways and beaten 

 Paths. 



They go to Buck commonly in January^ February^ 

 ind March, and fometimes all the warm Months » 

 rometimes fecking the Buck feven or eight miles diftant 

 from the place where they ufually fit, following the 

 High- ways, e^c. 



If when a Hare rifeth out of her Form, fhe couches 

 ler Ears and Scut, and runs not very fait at firft, it is an 

 infallible lign that (he is old and crafty. 



You may know a Buck- Hare as you hunt him to his 

 "orm by his beating the hard High- ways. He feedeth 

 "arther out into the Plains, and maketh his doublings 

 uid croilings much wider, and of greater compa(s 

 han the Female doth : for (he will keep clofe by fome 

 Dovert-fide, turning and winding in the bulhcs like a 

 "^oney i and if (he go to relief in the Corn- fields, (he 

 eldom crofleth over the Furrows, but followeth them 

 long, Itaying upon the thicke(\ tufts of Corn to 

 "eed. 



Likewife you may know a Buck at the riling out 

 f his Form by his Hinder - parts, which are more 

 /hitely i or if you obferve his Shoulders before he rife, 

 fhkh will be redder than the Does, having fome 

 )ofe long Hairs growing on them. Again, his Head 

 < (horter, and better trulTed i his Hairs about his Lips 



longer i
