THE HUNTING FIELD 



have a mortal horror of the idea of a pack of hounds, 

 imagining that if they once get into a cover they will 

 destroy every living thing in it. On this occasion, 

 however, those that were out found great fault with 

 the chiens Anglais^ asserting they were good for 

 nothing, for they would neither hunt hares, rabbits, 

 nor rats.
