of the Rein next to the Ring, which Loop put over 

 the Pommel of the Saddle, making the reft of the 

 Rein to come down between your Thigh, and the 

 Fore-boifter of the Saddle, and then put the reft of 

 the Rein through the Ring of the Cavezon upon 

 that fame fide, and bring the end of it back again 

 towards you, either to hold in yonr Hand (which 

 I would always advife you to do, fo long as you are 

 fuppling of a Horfe's Shoulders) or to faften with a 

 Buckle to the Pommel of the Saddle, there to re- 

 main fixt, fo long as you intend to ride him to that 

 hand upon which the Rein of the Cavezon is made 

 fait \ and when you have done with riding him to 

 that hand, do the fame with the Rein upon the 

 other fide. 



Your Cavezon being thus ordered, and the Reins 

 of the Bridle in your Left Hand, if you go to the 

 Right, pull with your Right Hand the inward Rein 

 of the Cavezon low, and towards your Knee, 

 within the Volt or Circle, helping him alfo with 

 your Leg within the Turn, to bring in his outward 

 Shoulder, which is Rein and Leg of a Side } and 

 this is to be done fir ft upon a Step, the Bridle-hand 

 fomewhat low, and a little upon the Infide of the 

 Horfe's Neck ♦, but now and then you muft carry it 

 upon the Outfide, and then immediately bring it 

 again to its place, which is a little upon the Infide \ 

 afterwards again place it upon the Outfide as you 

 fhill find occalion for it : Now this pulling of the 

 inward Rein of the Cavezon, and helping alfo with 

 the inward Leg or Spur, giveth a Horfe a good 

 Plye^ and akho' the principal aid of the Bridle 

 mould be always with the outward Rein, which is 

 to carry the Hand a little upon the Infide of his 

 Neck, yet the inward Rein is alfo made ufe of 

 (which is to carry the Bridle-hand upon the Outfide 

 of his Neck) to enlarge the Circle, and prevent a 

 Etfrfe's ftraitning or doling it too much. It alfo
