 manner. 



Firft, make her to the Fift, as is prefcribed in her 

 making to the Field : then carry her into the field 

 without Eells, and with a live Duck, which you muft 

 give to one of the company , who muli hide himfelf 

 in fome Ditch or Pit with the Duck tied to a Creance : 

 then mull you draw near him with yourii^»;i^unhood- 

 ed en your Fili, and gwing him fome private notice to 

 throw out the Duck, caft off > our Har^k:, and if (he take 

 K at the Source , let him reward and feed her with a 

 reafonabl- Gorge : then take her upon your Fill and 

 hood her, permitting her to tire and plume upon the 

 Leg or Wing of the Duck. The third day go again 

 with her into the Field in like manner, or elfehnd out
