The hooke of Hunting 241 



The fatte of a Bore, Foxe, and Badgerd, is called properly 

 Greace, An Hare (by old TryHrams opinion) bearcth both Greace 

 and Tallowe^ and the Roijue deares fat (onely of all Deare) is ter- 

 med Beauie greace. 



The flaying, ftriping, and cafing of 

 all maner Chaces 



THe Harte and all manner of Deare are flayne : and yet f/^^f"?* 

 Huntefmen vfe more commonly to fay, take off that Deares -^^'"^^ 

 fkinne. The Hare is ftryped, and (as Trykram fayeth) the Bore 

 alfo : the Foxe, Badgerd and all other vermine are cafed, that is 

 to fay, you muft beginne at the fnowte or nofe of the beaft, and 

 fo turne his fkinne ouer his eares all alongft the bodie, vntill 

 you come at the tayle : and that hangeth out to fhew what bealt 

 it was, this is called cafing : and yet a Badgerds fkinne is to 

 be ftretched with foure ftickes on crofle, to make it drye the bet- 

 ter, bycaufe it is great and fatte. 



Termes vfed when you bring any Chace to 

 his refting place, or rayfe him from it 



WE Herbor and Vnherbor a Harte, and he lieth in his layre : RtSiing 

 we lodge and rowfe a Bucke, and he lieth alfo in his layre : Z'^'*^^- 

 we feeke and finde the Rowe and he beddeth : we forme and 

 ftarte a Hare : we burrowe and bolt a Conie, and both the Hare 

 and Conie do fit and fquat. We couch and reare a Bore : we ken- 

 nell and vnkenell a Fox : we earth and digge a Badgerd : we 

 tree and baye both Martern and wild catte : we watch and vent 

 an Otter. And we trayne and rayfe the Wolfe, when we bring 

 them to their reftyng place and put them from the fame to be 

 hunted. Of the Raynedeare, Gote, or Beare, I haue neither read 

 nor herd the termes in this refped:.
