 tryal againft a Horfe that has been rightly train'd 

 after Hounds that were rruly fieet^ has to his cofl; 

 bought his Experiences and been convinc'd of his 

 Error, 



Therefore I wouldjperfwade j^l Lovers of Hunters 

 to get two or three Couple of try'd Hounds^ and once 

 or rmVf a week to follow after them a lrain-fcent\

 and to endure Heats and Colds ftoutjy, then he may

 if when he is fo/^, hefrrinks up his Body^ and draws 

 his Legs up together, tis an infallible token ot wara of
