\$6 the Com fie at Hoy fern an: or, 



gives him an|Appuy,by making him endure the Bitt, 

 for this makes it both work upon his^ars and Places 

 of the Curb, 



If you continue a little upon a Step, this Lefibn 

 of Rein and Leg upon a Side, you will find your 

 Horfe to grow eafy upon it, which will prepare him 

 for a good Trot, and to gallop large upon Circles of 

 one Pifte or Tread, his Croup always out, which will 

 fupple his Shoulders extreamly, efpecially that with- 

 out the Turn, fo that it may pafs for the beft of all 

 Leflbns *, the fuppling of the Shoulders being the 

 Foundation of a good Manage, and that which all 

 good Horfemen fhould at firft chiefly aim at. 



However, the working thus with Rein and Leg 

 of a Side, the Horfe's Croup out, doth at firft put a 

 Horfe very much upon his Shoulders, and makes 

 him alfo to prefs a little too hard upon the Bit •, but 

 in five or fix Days riding he will be no more upon 

 his Shoulders, but upon the contrary, he will begin 

 to ply his Haunches, and endure to be kept upon 

 them, if you fupport him a little with the Bridle, 

 and ftay him upon the Hand now and then, and 

 immediately flack it again. 



You muft alfo know, that in performing this 

 Lefibn, if you do not bring in the Horfe's outward 

 Shoulder with it, you do nothing- and therefore to 

 bring it in, you muft caufe the inward Shoulder to 

 come back within the Turn, as it were towards you, 

 that fo it may be prefTed, and carry the whole 

 Weight of the Fore- parts of the Horfe, while at the 

 fume time the outward Shoulder is at liberty, that it 

 may fupple •, fo that altho' you are now and then 

 to carry your Bridle-hand without his Neck, yet 

 you muft immediately replace it again within, and 

 work with the outward Rein of the Bridle, that you 

 may bring in his outward Shoulder *, for if a Horfe's 

 Shoulders be not very eaile and fupple, it will not 

 only be a means to make him refift and defend him-
