THE FLEXIONS 



The series given above is sufficient to teach the 

 rider the manipulation of the reins, and to train 

 the horse to yield by mouth and neck to the effects 

 of the bits. Many other flexions have been worked 

 out by methodists to meet special difficulties of 

 conformation and temper. But such a variety of 

 cases is outside the limits of this book. Those which 

 have been given, done first on foot and then 

 mounted, are quite sufficient for suppling neck and 

 mouth.
