gallop him as fharply as his Wind will allow him, 

 giving him Liftnings now and then in his Running, 

 to take his Wind. Let hisExercife be for two Hours 

 in the Morning, and as much at Night, leading 

 him always back to the Stable in your Hand, ha- 

 ving firft well covered him, and then rubbing and 

 drying him, give him his Water and Meat as I 

 have directed.

 therefore continue his Balls, and Exercife, until his 

 Dung come from him pretty dry, and without hu-

Upon the Days your Horfe is not to run, you are

 you find him exa&ly prepared, then give him Gar- 

 lick-balls every ninth Day only. If
